In the shadows of the dark night,
You need a woman by your side..
She'll help you make it in the cold light
and keep you warm an' satisfied
If you want somemore lovin'
Drive you out of your mind
Give a little sweetness and sugar
just make it sure she understands...
White skin women keep me howlin' for more
Brown skin honey, I love
Got a whitesnake mama
You wanna shake it mama
Got a whitesnake mama
Come an' let it crawl on you,
just enough to see ya through
You want to find a little angel
Sweet surrender in her eyesv Broke down heart through morning
To the moon is on the rise
Night time is the right time
for rolling on the silent gloves
Daytime, nighttime, anytime is the right time
stealin' round and makin' some love...
White skin women keep me howlin' for more
Brown skin honey, I love
Got a whitesnake mama
You wanna shake it mama
Got a whitesnake mama
Come an' let it crawl on you,
just enough to see ya through
Listen...
Back door man ain't done nothing,
but creep around the door..
When you see his woman weepin'
You know the snake is there for more
Day time, night time is the right time
for rolling on the silent gloves
Night time is the right time
make it sure you're the only one
White skin women keep me howlin' for more
Brown skin honey, I love
Got a whitesnake mama,
You wanna shake it mama
Got a whitesnake mama
Come an' let it crawl on you,
and you, and you...
Got a whitesnake mama (endless repeat)
