No Dessert

No I don't want no sweet potato pie
I don't want no ice cream
I don't want no pudding
Don't want no chocolate cake supreme

Don't want no baked Alaska
Don't want no chocolate mousse
Don't want no kinda cupcake
Don't want no kinda sweet juice

I don't want no ding dongs
I don't want no cheesecake
Don't want no layered trifle
I don't want no chocolate shake

I don't need no sweet dessert
Whenever I'm with you
You're sweeter than any treat
You're brown sugar sure will do

What I Need

What use would fortune and riches be
If I couldn't share it with you
Fancy cars and mansions
What would they do

Sure, I'd have satin sheets and pillows
On which to lay my head and cry
Nicer conditions, yes
But my pillow would never be dry

Lots of nice clothes and jewelry
Everyone would be impressed
But without you there with me
I'd be truly depressed

I have no worldly ambitions
Except to give my love
Nothing else could be better
My sweet turtle dove
