Lyrics Sassafras - The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band

Way down yonder in the tall grass
A little bitty woman named Sassafras
A wiggle in her walk
And a tickle in her talk
And a funny way of puttin' on the class

They say white lightning's in a jar
Clear as the water but it's hot as fire
That may be true but I'm tellin' you
A glass can't hold Sassafras

So tell all the neighborhood boys
I'm the one that's makin' all the noise
'Cause a little cup of tea
Knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sassafras

First time I kissed her in the city park
Bells started ringin' and it got dark
The army and the navy couldn't keep the people calm
They thought it was a hydrogen bomb

Next day I kissed her in the swimmin' hole
I kissed her in the water and dontcha know
The steam from the water rose high as the sky
And the old swimmin' hole went dry

So tell all the neighborhood boys
I'm the one that's makin' all the noise
'Cause a little cup of tea
Knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sassafras

I'm very sorry gotta go now
Me and my baby gonna take a vow
Gonna get married, gonna raise a family
Gonna raise 'em on Sassafras tea

So tell all the neighborhood boys
I'm the one that's makin' all the noise
'Cause a little cup of tea
Knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sassafras

A little cup of tea
Knocked the heart out of me
And that cup of tea was Sassafras
