Song Lyrics:

Every mornin' I want you wake up early; cook me a great big T-bone steak
Serve it to me in bed; go down the street and hustle
Bring me back all the money you make
I want you rub my body with sweet scented oil; cool me with a 'lectric fan
Run to the church, fall down on your knees, say Lord, I wanna thank you for that man

And I'll call that true love true and sweet
That ain't the kinds love I'm gettin', but baby that's the kinda love I need

I wanna come home every evenin' to a great big meal of wine and roasted pheasant
I want you say to me, Ray, hey this is Suzy, this is Kay
I brought 'em both home to you for a present
When the man down comes and finds my stash want you tell 'em it belongs to you
And when you're sittin' in slam, tell all the other chickies
When they get out, they should look me up too

And I'll call that true love true and sweet...

Some guy accuses me of foolin' with his wife and threats to take me apart
Points a gun at me, I want you to jump in the middle
And take the bullet in your own heart
And as you're lyin' on the floor and dyin', I want you to look up at me and say
Hey Ray, I'm sorry I messed up your rug just roll my body out of the way

And I'll call that true love true and sweet...

Hollywood calls you on the telephone I want you to turn down the part
And when we're a ballin' baby ride my top so I never strain my heart

I'll call that true love true and sweet...
(I B Emerson)
