Queen Latifah - Poetry Man Lyrics
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah
You make me laugh
'Cos your eyes they light the night
You bashful boy
You're hiding something sweet
Please give it to me, yeah
Oh, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things alright, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah
You are the genie
All I ask for is your smile
Each time I rub the lamp, la, la, la, la
When I'm with you
I have a giggling teenage crush
Then I'm a sultry vamp, yeah, a sultry vamp
Woah, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things alright, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah
Woah, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things alright
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh, yeah, ooh
So once again
It's time to say so long
And so recall the call of life, la, la, la, la
You're goin' home now
Home's that place somewhere you go each day
To see your wife, to see your wife
Woah, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things alright, yeah
Woah, talk to me some more
You don't have to go
You're the poetry man
You make things alright

Well I’m in love with the Queen, she needs to be my wife ❤️❤️💕🥰🥰🥰💕💕
A sub·tle·ty sexy song.
This is a beautiful version done by the queen!
So beautiful I could cry. I have actually. I played this on the way to college, a first timer. My father introduced me to this song, and being far away from my folks coupled with the nostalgia of this song tugged at my heart. Fond memories
Oh my goodness how very sweet I just fell in love 🥰 ❤️ with Queen Latifah all over again ,don’t get me wrong I still love my phoebe..

Incredible rendition of a classic! What an AMAZING voice of an 👼🎯🎼🎶🎸👏
Queen Latifah is a talented woman. Beautiful.. wonderful singer, actress. Shes got it all going for her. Hope shes thanking the Lord Jesus Christ.

I was set up and no where near high or drunk in my earlier comment seeing Queen Latifah saying Phoebe Snow is Black. But she does sound like the real McCoy
Jesus.....I thought this was Ann Wilson the whole time. Mind....Blown.
On my deathbed, please send her to sing this to me.
Canta muiiiiiito! Tem carisma, simpatia, beleza e uma bela voz...
WOW!! Miss Q.. Absolutely BEAUTIFUL.. Love your VOICE, TALENT, GENEROUS LOVE of LIFE you..
GIFT!!.. <3
3 <3..You have been soo BLESSED.. Xxxx
Latifah.......B4 her time......
LOOK AT GOOD OL' QUEEN L........POETRY MAN..... not yelling, jus' sayin'......
I didn't think I would like this remake but she did a good job.
a righteous cover...
Great job, Queen!
Wonderful!!!!
Who plays the sax on this version?
The original had Zoot Sims.
I believe it's Dan Higgins.
How so we know who is whom in Hollyweird?
Things are not what they seem.
Its all an illusion and the masses are 😴 asleep 💤
May Almighty God help, and act sooner.
Beautiful!!!!!!
Wow ! Please excuse my ignorance you Queen Latif.sing it nicely as Phoebe 💞thank you
Ok. This is a really good cover.
Beautiful. The Queen does this song justice. Love this version of the Phoebe Snow classic. BRAVA!!
The Queen...So smooth, "Talk to me some more."
This is just so gorgeous. What an exquisite and reverent rendition of a brilliant piece of music.
Wonderful version of this song.
Homage, true homage. Bravo Girl! Phoebe had that crazy, incredible, inflection, with just a flick of her voice she could take one or two words and just frickin SOAR like is unbelievable. In the original, right out the gate with just two words, 'Oooh yeah' ~ I don't know what kind of harmonic range she covers there, but it seems like octave's. QL's cover here literally brought me to tears, she nails it dead on. It's like I heard QL's voice in a whole new way I hadn't before. She just continues to amaze me, even tho I've always loved her.
que relajaaante esta cancioooon
Love this rendition, Queen LaTiffa did an amazing job!!! I love Pheobo way too!!!
Great cover on a Phoebe Snow classic!
GOD BLESS THE QUEEN...SO HUMBLE SO BEAUTIFUL...SO MEGA Talented...long live the queen..
Yeah, Demian.......sweet !!
Well said QL is an amazing singer
QUEEN LATIFAH 💯 REAL SISTA SINCE DAY 1
Good job!!
Another North Jersey girl covers it nicely!
Captures the feeling of driving along a ocean highway on a beautiful day in sunshine and your hair is lightly blowing and you don't hurry ... Just savor the moment
My lord, that is good.
very nice!
MAGNIFICENT!!!!!
Belle chanson, belle chanteuse.
Wonderful voice. She also sing's one of the best version ever "i?m not in Love". Great singer.
Francisco Diogo Lopes ..viva los trump
Well, here is comment #4. I love the original as sung by Phoebe Snow. I have always liked Queen Latifah and thought I'd check out her version. She does this song justice. It's beautiful.
Agreed. She (Queen Latifah) keeps the memory of this number alive. Including the sax solo arrangement.
Love her .. If you haven't seen" The secret lIfe of Bees"... Amazing
Talent...SHE SHINES W/ POWER
