Song lyrics
God, I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta love the sweet taste of India
Blame it on the beat of the drum
God, I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into ya
Any cat man do when it's done
Oh yeah, she's got that kind of love incense
That lives in her back room
And when it mixes with the funk, my friend
It turns into perfume
When you are born, you're afraid of the darkness
And then you're afraid of the light
But I'm not afraid when I dance with my shadow
This time I'm gonna get it right
To think of what I'll get tonight
Just lookin' for a little taste (a taste of India)
She'll steal the smile right off your face
Yeah
Her yin and yang
Is just the thing
She's unpredictable, my friend
God, I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into ya
Any cat man do when it's done
It's like your first taste love of vindaloo
That sets your heart on fire
And if you let her stuff get into you
It will be all that you desire
When you make love to a sweet tantric priestess
Drink in the bliss of delight
But I'm not afraid when I dance with her shadow
This time I'm gonna get it right
She's gonna whet my appetite
Just lookin' for a little taste (a taste of India)
She'll steal the smile right off your face
Yeah
She friend of mine
She concubine
The sweetest wine
I got to make her mine
God, I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta love the sweet taste of India
Blame it on the beat of the drum
God, I love the sweet taste of India
Lingers on the tip of my tongue
Gotta know that what's gotten into ya
Any cat man do when it's done
Just think of what I'll get tonight
She's gonna whet my appetite
Just lookin' for a little taste (a taste of India)
She'll steal the smile right off your face
