Brown Sugar (Live at the Jazz Café, London/1995)

[Intro]

Yeah

Two, two, four

[Verse 1]

Let me tell you 'bout this girl, maybe I shouldn't

I met her in Philly and her name was Brown Sugar

See, we be makin' love constantly

That's why my eyes are a shade blood burgundy

The way that we kiss is unlike any other way

That I be kissin' when I'm kissin' what I'm missin'

Won't you listen?

Brown Sugar, babe, I gets high off your love

I don't know how to behave

[Chorus]

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, babe)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, oh)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, oh, oh-oh)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(oh, baby, hey, oh-oh)

[Verse 2]

Oh, sugar, when you're close to me

You love me right down to my knees

And whenever you let me hit it

Sweet like honey when it comes to me

Skin is caramel with the cocoa eyes

Even got a big sister by the name of Chocolate Thai

Say what?

I get high off your love

I don't know how to behave

[Chorus]

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Hey, hey, oh)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, oh, baby)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, baby, baby, oh)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, babe, oh-oh)

[Interlude]

Hey

Hey, babe

Oh-oh

Oh, babe

[Verse 3]

Now that'd be how the story goes

Brown Sugar got me open, now I want some more

Always down for a ménage à trois

But I think I'ma hit it solo

Hope my niggas don't mind

Stick out my tongue and I'm 'bout

Ready to hit this pretty, pretty bitty

With persistence, yo, I don't think y'all hear me

Brown Sugar, babe, I gets high off your love

Don't know how to behave

[Chorus]

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, baby, I want some of your Brown Sugar, baby)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, baby, oh, baby)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, give it to me, give me some of your brown sugar, babe)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Babe, babe, oh, babe)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh-oh, hey)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, baby)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, so sweet)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Baby, so sweet to me, babe)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, brown sugar, baby)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, brown sugar, baby, sweet as a honey bee)

I want some of your brown sugar (Sugar)
