Sheâs cruising the streets
Making damn sure she donât run into that old man
Around him she hardly ever speaks
She slips into an old retreat
I saw her strutting in a dress
That was lucky last week
Keeping an eye out for a shady
Whoâs holding something sweet
Some sweet relief
Some find it in a bathtub
Or a back rub
The clothes they wear or just in the air
In the food they eat, itâs something sweet
Some sweet relief
Now Opelousas is a dim-lit town by night
But the people down there
They sure know how to live right
Why, they dance by the moon
They give a party for a fight
They got that look in their eyes says
Theyâre holding something sweet
Some sweet relief
Itâs in a handshake or a lucky break
In a bottle of wine or just losing some time
Itâs in the road you meet, oh
Itâs something sweet
Some sweet relief
Now you tell me you got some
I hope thatâs true
But you want some assurance
Youâll never be blue
Itâs in a boat ride
On the holy side
Itâs at the five and ten
Itâs everywhere youâve ever been
Itâs in the very words you speak
Itâs something sweet
Some sweet relief
