Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That's what I'm talking about boy
I'm just saying
And I ain't playing
It ain't like that with me when we be layin'
Let me love you
You're looking tired of these basic lovers
When I know the subtle
See I'm the type of the girl
To kill to love you down
Like you can be the king
And I'll bring you the crown
Like shimmy shimmy coco puff
Shimmy shimmy flower
Me and you on the ground
Baby now
If you wanna ride these curves
Hop on this Chevvy Nova
And if you gonna drive with nerve
Baby I'm gon' be your chauffeur
See I can make you feel good love
And when it's all over
I'mma fluff your pillow baby
Bring you a sandwich and a soda
See I'm the type of the girl
To kill to love you down
Like you can be the king
And I'll bring you the crown
Like shimmy shimmy coco puff
Shimmy shimmy flower
Me and you on the ground
Baby now
If you wanna ride these curves
Hop on this Chevvy Nova
And if you gonna drive with nerve
Baby I'm gon' be your chauffeur
See I can make you feel good love
And when it's all over
I'mma fluff your pillow baby
Bring you a sandwich and a soda
Oh, oh, oh

'Cause if you wanna ride these curves
Hop on this Chevvy Nova
And if you gonna drive with nerve
Baby I'm gon' be your chauffeur
See I can make you feel good love
And when it's all over

Bring you a sandwich and a soda
The lyrics of Tamia's "Sandwich and a Soda" are about a confident woman who is trying to convince her tired and love-weary partner to spend the night with her. She promises to give him so much love that he won't settle for basic lovers anymore. She's willing to bring him the crown and let him be the king of their world. The girl promises to take care of him and make him feel good. She compares having sex with him to driving a Chevy Nova and being his chauffeur; the idea is that he can sit back and relax while she takes care of him.
The chorus of the song is about the girl's promise to fluff his pillows and bring him a sandwich and a soda after they are done making love. The sandwich and soda represent a cozy and comfortable home atmosphere, where there is no need to dress up and go out, and the simple pleasures of life can be enjoyed in each other's company. It also signifies the love and care that the girl is willing to give her partner. The song's overall message is that the girl is confident in her abilities to love and take care of her man, and she's offering the opportunity to experience it.

Rari
She keeps me in love with REAL R&B!!
Monica maria McLean
Yeah because she really can sing
Leo33
Hands down she is one of my favorite female artists. She's gorgeous and she has unbelievable range. I really don't think people give her as much credit as she deserves. I also love that she sings about her love for her man. The new album is AMAZING! !
HisOnly17
This album is so great. Tamia is sooo underrated. Her voice is so beautiful
pookeystew1114
I so love Tamia. She has an amazing voice and I feel she is so underrated. This song and Stuck With Me is on constant repeat. Her songs Still, Me, Can't Get Enough Of You, Stranger In My House are a few of my favs
Anakin James
I love this song. Only Tamia would make the title "sandwich and a soda" as one of the best meals after lovemaking.
TAMIA ALSO HAS THE BEST LOOKING LEGS...
