Gold Coast slave ship
Bound for cotton fields,
Sod in a market
Down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver know
He's doing alright
Hear him whip the woman
Just around midnight

Brown sugar,
how come you taste so good? Aha
Brown sugar,
just like a young girl should Aha

Drums beating
Cold English blood runs hot,
Lady of the house wonderrin'
Where it's gonna stop
Houseboy knows
That he's doing alright
You should have heard him'
Just around midnight

Brown sugar,
how come you taste so good? Aha
Brown sugar,
just like a black girl should Aha
Ah
Brown, Brown sugar,
how come you taste so good? Aha
Ah… Brown sugar,
just like a black girl should Aha

I bet your mama was
A tent show queen
And all her girl friends
Were sweet sixteen
I'm no schoolboy,
But I know what I like
You should have heard me
Just around midnight

Ah… Brown sugar,
Brown, Brown, Brown sugar,
just like a black girl should

Ah Yeah Yeah Yeah Fu
How come you, How come you taste so good

Ah Yeah Yeah Yeah Fu
Just like a, Just like a black girl should
Ah Yeah Yeah Yeah Fu
