Cola Bottle Baby Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cola, Cola bottle shape, baby
You're freaking me out, girl
Cola, Cola bottle shape, baby
You're freaking me out, girl
[Pre-Chorus]
(You can get it)
But I don't get none
(You can get it)
'Cause you been fooling me
(You can get it)
Pensacola girl's made a fool out of me
[Chorus]
Oh, when you look into her eyes
You can believe all the lies, the lies
And the alibis
[Verse 2]
Cola, Cola bottle shape, baby
You're freaking me out, baby
Cola, Cola bottle shape, baby
I love the way you dance, baby
Cola, Cola bottle shape, girl
Freaking my mind out
[Pre-Chorus 2]
(You can get it)
But that's just a lie
(You can get it)
You give her the feared sense of alibi
(You can get it)
[Chorus 2]
Oh, when you look into her eyes
That's when you start, start to cry
'Cause you believe all the lies
[Bridge]
Coke bottle shape
Yeah, she's got the Pep
She's got the Pepsi good taste
7-Up fizz, fizz
Fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz
She makes me fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz
Leaves you sugar free
Fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz
She makes you sugar free, fizz
Fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz
[Verse 3]
Coke bottle shape, baby
Freaking my mind out
So far out, oh, out
Cola bottle shape, baby
Freaking my mind out
[Pre-Chorus 3]
(You can get it)
But that's just a lie
(You can get it)
Pensacola girl's made a fool out of you
(You can get it)
[Chorus 3]
Oh, when you look into her eyes
That's when you sigh
'Cause you believe all the lies and alibis
[Outro]
Coke bottle shape
Fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz
She's got that Pepsi good taste
7-Up fizz, fizz
Fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz
She makes me fizz, fizz, fizz, fizz
Leaves you sugar free

Around the Mississipi delta area, there were these beautiful black women, shaped like cola bottles, and very spiritual, they got us through. I wrote the song about a “Cola Bottle Baby”, meaning she was chocolate and built like that. I fantasized what a woman like that would look like.

What did Birdsong have to say about Daft Punk sampling the song?
I recorded it 30 years ago, and here come some guys from France. I asked them, ‘Where did you find the music?’ And they said, ‘I was going through bins and it popped out.’ […] And then Kanye West also sampled the same song, calling it “Stronger”. I’m blessed and I continue to be blessed by opening m...
