Everybody says that you're so beautiful

From the inside to the out

My precious jewel

I hope that I can give you all the love you need

I'd lay down my life for ya baby, yes indeed High Yellow girl

Golden lady fair, with hair, like lamb's wool

High yellow child

So familiar to me, like the river Nile I lie awake at night sometimes my eyes get full

How did I deserve such love from an angel

Oh, the lovely simple thangs, your soul rushing

The sun rises and sets on ya baby, blessed be High yellow girl

Skin like clover honey, eyes like mother's soul

High yellow child

One half dark like daddy, one half mama bright So familiar to me (you look like me)

Your smile, it reminds me of every aromatic saffron

High yellow child, Yellow child high Patiently, I waited, for so long, I prayed

And my sweet Jesus sent me you on Christmas day

Last night I picked up my guitar, chile I'm feelin you

What can I give to my daughter, hey y'all, tell the truth High yellow girl

Golden lady fair, with hair like lamb's wool

High yellow child

So familiar through me, like the river Nile So familiar to me, your smile

It reminds me of aromatic saffron

High yellow child, Yellow child high

They call here Mello Yellow

Cuz her skin is caramel

They call her Mellow Yellow

Cuz her skin is caramel
