Elaine is..

On the grind in the morning, but she can party at night
Kinda woman to help you out when you ain’t feelin’ alright

Knows her worth, don’t keep the genuine locked in
Sippin’ sweet tea w/two coffee creamers, takin’ her ride for a spin

Giggles, and “oh hell no’s”, “tell me why’s” & smiles
Carefully crafted talons, lipstick shades & nail files

The ultimate Henny Queen, sippin’ golden brown liquor & coke
Always down for the roadtrip, with a warm scarf around her throat

The epitomy of an old soul, with a dash of a rasta sista
She stands on her own two feet, doesn’t need to lean on a mister

A former jazz singer, and a hip hop girl at heart
Elaine is.. what Elaine is.. enchanting from the very start
