Lyrics of Brown Sugar by The Rolling Stones,Eric Clapton
verse
Yeah, gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in a market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver know he's doin' 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, ah yeah
verse
Yeah, drums beating, cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' where it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doing alright
You shoulda heard him just around midnight
chorus
Brown sugar
How come you taste so good?
Brown sugar
Just like a young girl should
Aw, yeah-yeah-yeah
chorus
Ah, get down to the ground, brown sugar
How come you taste so good?
Ah, get down, get down, brown sugar
Just like a young girl should
verse
I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet 16
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 girl should
chorus
Ah, come down, come down, brown sugar
How come you taste so good?
Ah, come down, get down, brown sugar
Movin' around, come on, movin' around
chorus
Ah, get down to the ground, brown sugar
Just livin' all night for it, lay it all down
Ah, get down on your knees, brown sugar
How come, how come... woah!
verse
Ah, come down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Woah!
chorus
Ah, how come you taste so good, good?
Ah, come to the ground, now children
How come you taste so good?
Come to the ground, now children
How come you taste so good?
outro
That's it
Was that good?
Writer(s): Mick Jagger, Keith Richards
