Gold Coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in the market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver knows he's doin' all right
You can hear them women just around midnight
Yeah, brown sugar, how come you taste so good?
I said, yeah, yeah, brown sugar
Just like [F]a young girl should
Drums beatin' cold, English blood ɾuns hot
Lady of the house wonderin' when it's gonna stop
The house boy knows that he's doin' all [Em]ɾight
You should have heard him just around midnight
Come on, come on
Brown sugar, how come you [A7look so good?

You got [Fm7]the sugar, that's what I want, baby
I'll be [Am]your sugar daddy, I promise you [A7that
I bet your mama was [Am7]a Cajun Queen
And all [Em]her boyfriends were sweet sixteen
