Analysis of Treat Yourself
Perry Campanella 1948 (FL)
My woman was my Spouse
she was all about 'Our House'
was 'Top Dog' in my domain,
My woman had a Ball
She will (flee) "flea on me"
should I ever 'Stall'
It's not about our money
She has it 'ALL'
It's not about any one-thing
on that One Hand, or
if my shoe fit's
She didn't want me to fall
my woman did know Love
would not except thee 'REST'
She came to me halfway
as I would always do my 'BEST'
my Honey or myself could never
'Tip-Toe' through our loving home
we simply had to "Treat Ourselves"
" Once upon a time"
