Call Me Pinstripe

A slim smooth man Every step being his command His fashion statement being high in demand But his distinction being pinstripe Pinstripe always dressed fresh like a spring ripe Assortments had to be just right being black and white or white and red pinstripes Pinstripe had all the hype He got his name from dancing at many clubs A woman’s remembrance to think of The minute Pinstripe entered any room it was always greetings of what’s up His shoes were of quality brand Every inch of Pinstripe and everyone knew he was the man Pinstripe’s hair was combed with his hair being shown The tie became a creation and conversation piece of don’t hate just appreciate Every woman married or single wanted to dance with Pinstripe Each moving dance step was a woman’s date being met Pinstripe had that certain swagger From that first sip of wine A cigarette just before he would dine Pinstripe knew how to pass the time He was the dress code, but never ate alone It was his personality in having the woman melt like butter Pinstripe was definitely like no other He was the mainstream being a name He was persuasive and had game But who was going to blame? Getting attention was the precision at direct aim The bull’s eye being any woman that had a fishing rod and a net, however, it was Pinstripe being the catch of the day, and being the best bet.
