Silver Spoon
Rewrite of Kiss song by the same name
I ain't lookin' to hook up
With any ole redneck fool
You can save that dead end shh
For someone else
I ain't gonna be pressured
Into making no desperate, lonely female move
I ain't taking
Just any gentleman's sweet invite
Tell any poor man who tries
Oh no won't be breakin' thru
To this cold, cold heart of mine
Cause I don't need nobody
If their wallet ain't nice and fat
Gonna follow what good ole daddy once said
He said...
Girl, you gotta marry
A man born with a silver spoon
No man goin' nowhere
So just you search that crowded room
Till you find
Till you see
That snobby attitude
In their eyes
That's when you'll know for sure
When you see one
With slick charm
Who's never in his life
Ever had to apologize
You'll know he's the one
For my special little girl
The man born with the silver spoon
In the city
The big, big city
Ooh that's where my hopes rise
For a lover
Not just a simple face
His mama may not like it
But when my rich baby dies
I'm gonna be the one
To get everything
In the place
Ain't ever gonna settle for just
A plain working somebody
Gonna follow what good ole daddy once said
He said...
Girl, you gotta marry
A man born with a silver spoon
No man goin' nowhere
So just you search that crowded room
Till you find
Till you see
That snobby attitude
In their eyes
That's when you'll know for sure
When you see one
With slick charm
Who's never in his life
Ever had to apologize
You'll know he's the one
For my special little girl
The man born with the silver spoon
Cause all that's good enough
For a sweet baby girl like you
A man born with a silver spoon
I just know
Tonight's gonna be the night
This gold digger finds
Her Mr. Moneybags
I can just picture him now
So fine and generous
In my head
Not just another working class nobody
Gonna follow what good ole daddy once said
He said....
Girl, you gotta marry
A man born with a silver spoon
No man goin' nowhere
So just you search that crowded room
Till you find
Till you see
That snobby attitude
In their eyes
That's when you'll know for sure
When you see one
With slick charm
Who's never in his life
Ever had to apologize
You'll know he's the one
For my special little girl
The man born with the silver spoon
