Brown Skin Lyrics

[Chorus]
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin (Brown skin)
I can't tell where yours begins
I can't tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin (Brown skin)
Need some every now and then (Oh, yeah)

[Verse 1]
Where are your people from?
Maybe Mississippi or an island
Apparently your skin has been kissed by the sun
You make me wanna Hershey's kiss, your licorice
Every time I see your lips
It makes me think of honey-coated chocolate
Your kisses are worth more than gold to me
I'll be your almond joy, you'll be my sugar daddy

[Chorus]
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin (Brown skin)
I can't tell where yours begins
I can't tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin (Brown skin)
Need some every now and then (Ooh, hey)

[Verse 2]
Every time you come around
Something magnetic pulls me and I can't get out
Disoriented, I can't tell my up from down
All I know is that I wanna lay you down
Every time I let you in
Abracadabra, magic happens as we swim
Higher and higher, finally we reach heaven
Come back to Earth and then we do it all again (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin (Brown skin)
I can't tell where yours begins
I can't tell where mine ends
Brown skin, up against my brown skin (Brown skin)
Need some every now and then (Oh, yeah)

[Bridge]
Skin so brown, lips so round
Baby, how can I be down? (Down)
Beautiful mahogany
You make me feel like a queen (You make me feel like a queen)
Tell me what's that thing you do
That makes me wanna get next to you, yeah (Yeah)
Oh, oh, I want your

[Chorus]
Brown skin, you know I love your brown skin (Brown skin)
I can't tell where yours begins
I can't tell where mine ends
Brown skin (Ooh), up against my brown skin (Brown skin)
Need some every now and then (Need some every now and then, hey)
Brown skin (Ooh), you know I love your brown skin (Brown skin)
I can't tell where yours begins
I can't tell where mine ends (Hey)
Brown skin (You know), up against my brown skin (Brown skin)
Need some every now and then (Oh, yeah, oh)

[Outro]
Oh, oh
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, hey
