Inspired by two people he witnessed in a resort (the same from “Cabo Wabo”), Sammy Hagar sings about how couples seriously mismatched in looks are easily explained with “money is the greatest aphrodisiac”.
Ow!
She's so fine
How about a 9 on a 10 scale?
With long legs
Straight on up to her lunch pail
Woo! Sweet little wishbone, oh yeah
Don't wanna break her in half
Lick up one side, down the other
Always makes her laugh, ha ha!
She take me down, down, down to the bottom
I got everything you wanted
Give you everything you need
Still you want that sugar daddy over me?
Huh - She want a sucker, sucker in a 3 piece
A sucker all dressed up in a 3-piece suit
I'm on fire, woo, with just one look
Got me a brand new number
In my little black book
But she don't like the way I dress
She don't like the way I wear my hair
But when I roll you over, baby, you don't care
Just take me down, down, down, down to the bottom
Give me everything I want
Give me everything I need
You don't want that sugar daddy, not over me
Ooh! She want a sucker, woo, sucker in a 3 piece
A sucker all dressed up in a 3-piece suit
Oh, say it isn't so, baby
You want a sucker
He just a sucker
He just a sucker
Look at all that money, baby
Ya know, your sugar daddy
You're a sugar mama
Hey! You're both a bunch of suckers
[Guitar solo]
Oh, he got a big ole belly
A stone bald head
Now, listen here, honey
That ain't down your alley, no
He just a sucker in a 3 piece
Sucker, yeah, in a 3-piece suit
J-just a sucker
Stone-cold, sugar daddy
J-just a sucker
(Sucker) All dressed up in a 3-piece suit
That’s all right, go ahead, suck it all up
Right down to the last drop
