Lyrics

[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 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?

[Verse 2]

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)

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

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 (Oh, sugar)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Ooh, yeah, sugar)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

[Verse 5]

Now that'd be how the story goes

Brown Sugar got me open, now I want some more

Always down for a menage a troi

But I think I'ma hit it solo, hope my **** 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

[Verse 6]

Brown Sugar babe, I get 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)

[Verse 7]

(Gimme some of your Brown Sugar, baby)

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)

[Verse 8]

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

(So sweet to me, babe)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

[Verse 9]

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

(Sugar, babe, sweet to me, everything)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)

(Oh, Brown Sugar, babe, sweet as honey)

I want some of your Brown Sugar (Sugar)
