  • 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 making 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
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    Ooh, ooh

    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 the honey when it comes to me (oh, whoa, whoa, whoa)
    Skin is caramel with those cocoa eyes
    Even got a big sister by the name of Chocolate Thai

    Brown sugar babe, I gets high off your love (oh)
    Don't know how to behave, yeah (oh)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar, ohh)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    (Oh, ayy) ooh, ooh

    Oh, oh, ooh
    Yo, Tail, cut me up some
    Ohh
    Oh no, no, ayy (ooh, ooh)
    Da-da, da-da (ohh, ayy, ohh)

    Now that'd be how the story goes
    Brown sugar got me open, now I want some more, huh
    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 gritty, pretty
    Bitty with persistence
    Yo, I don't think ya'll hear me

    Brown sugar babe, I gets high off your love
    Don't know how to behave (yeah)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (oh, yeah, yeah)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar)
    (I want some of your brown sugar, baby)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (oh, ayy, oh, baby)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (oh, yeah)
    (Gimme some of your brown sugar, baby)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (ayy, said, oh yeah)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (ah, yeah, ooh, yeah, oh)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (ooh, yeah, ooh)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (ooh, yeah, brown sugar)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (so sweet, sweet, baby, so sweet to me, babe)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (oh, brown sugar, yeah, oh)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (that brown sugar, oh, hey, hey)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (oh, hey, hey, hey, hey, ayy)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (brown sugar, sweet to me every night)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (every day, said, brown sugar in my cup)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (oh, brown sugar, baby, sweet as could be)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) (give some here to me, ooh, ooh)
    I want some of your brown sugar (sugar) Writer/s: Ali Shaheed Jones-Muhammad, Michael D'angelo Archer
