Louis Jordan — I Like Em Fat Like That

I Like'em Fat Like That (Claude de Metrius/Louis Jordan/J. Mayo Williams) Let the cats all criticize Joke about my baby's size; She's reet with me Because you see: I like 'em fat like that When she bounces down the street She's a whole heap o' honey, and ain't she sweet? Feels so fine To know she's mine: I like 'em fat like that You have all those lean chicks Tender and tall But when it comes to mean kicks My big fat mama is the best of all After I'm through workin' I reach and grab my hat Hurry home Don't want her to be alone: I like 'em fat like that!
