about

Read an article about the health benefits of herbal tea and somehow it made it into a song. A couple years later when we were playing at a natural foods festival, lo and behold, the booth that was set up next to our stage was an herbal tea business. Needless to say, this song went over quite well. Oh me, oh my, oh me.........

lyrics

That Tea

Well gimme, some of that chamomile tea
Well gimme, some of that chamomile tea
I'm moving so fast like some kind of clown
My thoughts rushing round, and babe, I need to slow down
So gimme, some of that chamomile tea
Well gimme, some of that chamomile tea

Well gimme, some of that yerba buena tea
Well gimme, some of that yerba buena tea
My nose is so stuffed, my knees are so weak
This cold's got me down and I'm so dead on my feet
So gimme, some of that yerba buena tea
Well gimme, some of that yerba buena tea


Well gimme some of your honey in my tea
Well gimme some of your honey in my tea
Your love is so sweet, it's driving me wild
I cry out for more just like a small hungry child
Well gimme some of your honey in my tea
So gimme some of your hospitality

Oh me, oh my, oh me, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme that tea
Oh me, oh my, oh me, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme that tea
Oh me, oh my, oh me, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme that tea
Oh me, oh my, oh me, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme that tea
