I need home, home cookin', yeah! I need home, home cookin', yeah! It's said, a woman's place Is in the kitchen But in the kitchen, you are a flop Them meals that you been fixin' They ain't nothin' but yesterday's slop An I like, yo' wiggly walk I like yo' baby talk, yeah! You're neat, the way you look But you ain't nothin' If you can't cook I need home, home cookin', yeah! I need home, home cookin', yeah! Hot! I sweat all day I rush back home, to see what you cookin' Your beans are burned You've ruined my place And in the mirror, I find you lookin' Now, I like sweet candied yams And I like homemade ham-hocks Instead of study, how you look You oughta study Yo' mama's cookbook If you want a soul man Get to rattlin', them pots and pans I need home, home cookin' I need home, home cookin' Yeah! Hot gravy That pot roast That pickled beets And sugared toast I like yo' wiggly walk, yeah! An I like yo' way a-talkin' And you look neat, the way you look But you ain't nothin' If you can't cook I need home, home cookin' I'm in the mood For soul food I said, home, home cookin'.
This really shows how tough it was to Cover Jamerson. Even Will Lee struggled to replicate Jamerson syncopation, ghost notes and touch. Jamerson has such strong and firm notes, as well as consistency thru use of his 1-finger technique. It's just super difficult to replicate.
Hate to say it but it sounds better without diana ross.This is is one of a few motown songs im not so keen on and im probably one of motowns biggest fans
It said that Jr. Walker got his name from his family and friends. He was called Junior by his stepfather, and Walker by his friends because he didn't have a bicycle as a youngster so he did all of his errands by feet. So upon entering show business Autry DeWalt Mixon didn't quite have a catch so he decided to put together the name Jr. Walker and it caught on.
