Brown Sugar
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in a market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver knows he's doing alright
Hear him whip the women, just around midnight
Ah, brown sugar how come you taste so good?
Ah, brown sugar just like a young girl should
Drums beating cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' where it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doing alright
You should a heard him just around midnight
Ah, brown sugar how come you taste so good?
Ah, brown sugar just like a young girl should
I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen
I'm no school boy but I know what I like
You should have heard me just around midnight
Ah, brown sugar how come you taste so good?
Ah, brown sugar just like a young girl should
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, wooo!
How come you taste so good?
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, well
Just like a black girl should
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, wooo!
