rhiannon giddens - one hour mama lyrics
i’ve always heard that haste makes waste
so i believe in takin’ my time
the highest mountain can’t be raced
it’s something you must slowly climb
i want a slow and easy man
he needn’t ever take the lead
’cause i work on that long-time plan
and i ain’t a-lookin’ for no speed
i’m a one hour mama
so no one minute papa
ain’t the kind of man for me
set your alarm clock, papa
one hour, that’s proper
then love me like i like to be
i don’t want no lame excuses
about my lovin’ being so good
that you couldn’t wait no longer
now i hope i’m understood
i’m a one hour mama
so no one minute papa
ain’t the kind of man for me
i can’t stand no greenhorn lover
like a rookie goin’ to war
with a load of big artillery
but he don’t know what it’s for
he’s got to bring me a reference
with a great long pedigree
and prove he’s got endurance
or he don’t mean that to me
i don’t like no crowin’ rooster
what hits a lick or two
action is the only booster
of just what my man can do
i don’t want no limitation
my requirements ain’t no joke
for i’ve got pure indignation
for a guy that’s lost his stroke
i’m a one hour mama
so no one minute papa
ain’t the kind of man for me
set your alarm clock, papa
one hour, that’s proper
then love me like i like to be
i may want love for one hour
then decide to make it two
takes an hour before i get started
maybe three before i’m through
i’m a one hour mama
ain’t no one minute papa
ain’t the kind of man for me
