Brown Sugar - Ruth Brown

Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields

Sold in the market down in New Orleans

Scarred old slaver knows he’s doing alright

Hear him whip the women just around midnight

Brown sugar how come you taste so good

Brown sugar just like a young girl should- ah hum oh.

Woo!

Drums beating

Cold English blood runs hot

Lady of the house wonderin' when it’s gonna stop

House boy

Knows that he’s doing alright

You shoulda heard him just around midnight

Brown sugar how come you taste so good

Brown sugar just like a young girl should- ah hum oh.

Woo!

Ah, get down on brown, brown sugar, how come you taste so good?

Ah, get down, get down brown sugar, just like a young girl should

Ah I bet your mama was a tent show queen

And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen

I’m no schoolboy but I know what I like

You shoulda heard me just around midnight

Brown sugar how come you taste so good

Ah, come down brown sugar, just like a young girl should

Ah, get down, get down brown sugar, how come you taste so good

Ah get down little brown, brown sugar, move it all down

Ah get down little brown, brown sugar

Ah get down on your knees brown sugar

How come, how come

Woo!

How come, down, down, down, down

Woo!

How come you taste so good, babe

Ah get down

Down to the ground, babe

How come you taste so good

I said yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!

How come you… how come you taste so good?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!

Just like a… just like a young man should

Yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!
