Color Purple movie - Miss Celie's Pants lyrics
rate me<br>
CELIE<br>
Dear Nettie, I went back home. The house was okay, but the store was a dusty mess.<br>
But I fixed it up, and now I'm makin' pants for anybody who wants 'em. I change the<br>
cloth, I change the print, I change the waist, I change the pocket. Only thing I can't<br>
do is quit makin' 'em.<br>
ALL I NEED'S A NEEDLE AND A SPOOL OF THREAD.<br>
GOT ABOUT A MILLION PATTERNS IN MY HEAD.<br>
ALL THE LADIES' LEGS ARE GONNA LOVE TO DANCE<br>
WHEN THEY IN MISS CELIE'S PANTS.<br>
GLODENE & ODESSA<br>
GABARDINE, VELVETEEN, SATIN, OR LACE.<br>
BUTTONS AND BOWS ALL OVER THE PLACE.<br>
CELIE<br>
STYLES THAT MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE A QUEEN.<br>
CHURCH LADIES<br>
THAT WOMAN'S A WIZ WITH HER SEWIN' MACHINE!<br>
EVERYONE<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT?<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT?<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHAT YOU SAY<br>
IN MISS CELIE'S PANTS!<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT?<br>
SOFIA<br>
LOOKIT HERE,<br>
GET OUT MY WAY.<br>
SOFIA'S BACK,<br>
AND I'M HERE TO STAY<br>
EVERYONE<br>
IN MISS CELIE'S PANTS!<br>
SHUG<br>
GIRL, YOU SWEPT OUT THE MEM'RIES,<br>
FILLED THIS PLACE WITH JOY.<br>
SOFIA<br>
IN THIS BIG OL' STORE<br>
18<br>
DORIS<br>
GOT YOUR SEWING MACHINES,<br>
DARLENE<br>
MIRRORS SHINY CLEAN,<br>
JARENE<br>
AND A FITTIN' ROOM<br>
SMELL LIKE SWEET PERFUME.<br>
SOFIA<br>
THAT MAN MIGHT HAVE<br>
SHUG, GLODENE & ODESSA<br>
DONE YOU WRONG,<br>
CELIE<br>
BUT LOOK . . .<br>
I SAID, LOOK . . .<br>
ARE YOU LOOKIN'? . . .<br>
Celie looks around at all of them and sings to Shug.<br>
CELIE<br>
LOOK WHO'S WEARING THE PANTS NOW!<br>
EVERYONE<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT?<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT?<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHAT YOU SAY<br>
IN MISS CELIE'S PANTS!<br>
(SCAT)<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHO DAT?<br>
WHO DAT SAY<br>
WHAT YOU SAY<br>
IN MISS CELIE'S PANTS!<br>
