[Verse 1]
Twenty-five pounds of pure cane sugar
In each and every kiss
You wouldn't know what I'm talkin' about
If you never had lovin' like this
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't mean to be brash
Tell y'all, it's a natural fact
Good things come in small packages
You'll have to agree to that, tell you now
[Chorus]
Ninety-nine pounds of natural born goodness, y'all
Ninety-nine pounds of soul, tell you now
Now I'm ninety-nine pounds of natural goodness, y'all
Ninety-nine pounds of soul
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Twenty-five pounds of tenderness
In each and every touch
Twenty-five pounds of understandin' my man
And I don't want to worry too much
[Pre-Chorus]
Twenty-four pounds of something, y'all
That I can't even name
And it all adds up to ninety-nine pounds
Well put together in a fine wire frame
[Chorus]
And I'm ninety-nine pounds of natural born goodness, y'all
Ninety-nine pounds of soul, let me tell you now
Now I'm ninety-nine pounds of natural goodness, y'all
Ninety-nine pounds of soul
[Outro]
Ninety-nine, y'all
Oh, sure is fine
Ninety-nine, y'all
