Brown Sugar (Live 1981)

[Intro]

Let's go baby, let's go

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

Brown sugar how come you taste so good?

Brown sugar just like a young girl should

[Verse 2]

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 em just around midnight

[Chorus]

Brown sugar how come you taste so good?

Brown sugar just like a young boy should

[Saxophone Solo]

[Chorus]

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

Hey, get down, get down brown sugar, just like a young boy should

[Verse 3]

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

[Chorus]

Brown sugar how come you taste so good?

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

How come you taste so good?

How come you taste so good?

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]

I said yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!

How come you, how come you taste so good?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, (Woo!)

How come you taste so good?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, (Woo!)

How come you taste so good?

[Audience Applause]
