[Verse 1]
Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in the market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver knows he's doing alright
Y'all should've heard 'em just around midnight

[Chorus]
Brown sugar how come you taste so good
Brown sugar just like a young boy should

[Verse 2]
Drums beating, cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' when it's gonna stop
House boy knows that he's doing alright
You all should've heard 'em just around midnight

[Chorus]
Brown sugar how come you taste so good now
Brown sugar just like a young girl should

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Ah, get down on brown, brown sugar, how come you taste so good?
Ah, get down, get down brown sugar, just like a young girl should
[Verse 3]
Ah I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen
I'm no schoolboy but I know what I like
Y'all should've heard 'em just around midnight

[Chorus]
Brown sugar how come you taste so good, baby?
Ah, come down brown sugar, just like a young boy should, yeah

[Outro]
How, how come you taste so good?
No really, how come you taste so
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!
How come you taste so good?
I said yeah, yeah, yeah, woo!
Alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Audience Applause]
