Lyrics

Good morning to ya!
Good morning, this morning
This morning is the finest morning
'Cause no other morning is this morning
If tomorrow morning is as fine as this morning
Then tomorrow morning is the finest morning
'Cause no other morning is this morning
Good morning to ya!
I went downtown (said I went downtown)
I saw Ms. Brown (said I saw Ms. Brown)
She had brown sugar (had brown sugar)
All over her booga wooga (all over her booga wooga)
I think I might join the fun (I might join the fun)
But I had to hit and run (but I had to hit and run)
See, I just can't settle down (just can't settle down)
In a kinky part of town
Right on
Right ooooon
I've got to
Said I've got to
Uhn
Kinky reggae
I'm riding on
Kinky reggae
(Watch it)
Kinky reggae
Pull over and let me through
Kinky reggae, now
Said I'm talking to you
Now y'all,
I went downtown and saw Ms. Brown
And this what she said,
"You'd like brown sugar?"
And she stroked her fingers through my chest
I said, "Hey, sister, I'm a stranger riding through your town,
I'm like a hit and run, but, yo, I just can't settle down,
'Cause I play music" She said, "Music?
Let me hear you play"
As a want to a man that I could say
Reggae music will lead you all a day
Woaaaah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Right on
Uh
Right on
Right on
I went down to picadilly circus
Down there I saw Marcus
He had a candy tar
All over his candy bar
I said, "I'm gonna join the fun" (said I'm gonna join the fun)
But I had to hit and run (but I had to hit and run)
See, I just can't settle down (just can't settle down)
In a kinky part of town
Nice one
Woah
What did you say
I'm a leaving you today
It's kinky reggae
Kinky reggae, now
Kinky reggae
Kinky reggae, now
Kinky reggae
Kinky reggae, now
Kinky reggae
Kinky reggae, now
It's kinky reggae
Kinky reggae, now
Kinky reggae
Kinky reggae, now
Kinky reggae (do it baby)
Kinky reggae, now
Kinky reggae
Kinky reggae, now
