Curtis Mayfield
Sweeter Than Sugar
[Intro]
Oh, J-O-E
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen (And royalty)
I got my man Royal on the track
And my dawg Bishop, young don, oh, well
(Sweeter than sugar)

[Verse 1]
Don't argue much now that I've
Acquired the things of the good life
360 Medina, how things have changed
A crib with an east and a west wing
I gotta thank God for my life and all
He keeps blessing with more and more

[Pre-Chorus]
And ball 'til I fall now that I see that I
Can reach for a dream and pull it from the sky
Sweeter than sugar is what I dream
My life would be if left up to me
And oh, I like that
(Sweeter than sugar)

[Chorus]
Shopping sprees, trips overseas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
The cars I want, I'll buy the lot
The cribs I want, I'll buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
[Verse 2]
Moderate players, that's we are
We 'bout getting paper — feel me, God
No longer out there chasing dreams
I'm living the words of the song I sing
Gotta thank my fans for your support
For you, I'll keep loving even more and more

[Pre-Chorus]
And ball 'til I fall now that I see that I
Can reach for a dream and pull it from the sky
Sweeter than sugar is what I dream
My life would be if left up to me
And oh, I like that
(Sweeter than sugar)

[Chorus]
Shopping sprees, trips overseas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
The cars I want, I'll buy the lot
The cribs I want, I'll buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
[Bridge]
Cars, jewels and chips (Word)
Rims, cribs and chicks (Word)
Love for these streets (I got it)
Cars, jewels and chips (Oh, ooh)
Rims, cribs and chicks (Yeah)
Love for these streets (I got it)
(Sweeter than sugar) My life is sweeter

[Chorus]
Shopping sprees, trips overseas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
The cars I want, I'll buy the lot
The cribs I want, I'll buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
Shopping sprees, trips overseas
Finest luxuries, the good life
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
The cars I want, I'll buy the lot
The cribs I want, I'll buy the block
I just say the word and it will be
(Sweeter than sugar)
