Sweet Sugar Mama

G. Love And Special Sauce · Best of G Love and Special Sauce [2002]

I went down baby ? ? ?

Sittin' in the shade with my lady

? ? ? left the bus

So lets not discuss

I never never never liked a girl that much

But she's so fine

Oh momma all the time

I seen the sister in the moon

And now she's in my room

Well, she's my sister and my lover

And my friend and my momma

Well late at night, late at night

Don't you just feel alright

Well, sweet sugar momma I ? ? ?

Sweet sugar momma I ? ? ?

I got you girl oh momma ? ? ?

You're so sweet oh you so fine

I got you girl oh momma

Well I see you in the morning

The color of my rising sky

And I said well you smell ? ? ?

Like some flowers in the springtime

Well rolling down hills

Climb a mountain

Cross a ocean

Well hand to hand together

Oh together we stand

Well, sweet sugar momma

I ? ? ?

Sweet sugar momma

I ? ? ?
