Come on, come on, come on, come on
(Baby don't you wanna come?)
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on!
(Baby don't you wanna come?)
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Everybody get up!
(Baby don't you wanna come?)
[Verse 1]
In the eleventh hour, baby, when the moon is high
Sugar when my passion starts to flow
I got a fantasy, it's for you
And I know a real hot spot
I can take you anywhere you want to go
[Channel]
I know a place down by the tracks
Where they got a little jazz band
Such a sexy situation
We'll bust a bottle of Cristal
And just wait to see what happens
Come on, won't you come with me?
[Chorus]
You can meet me over at the sugar shack
Quarter past eleven, oh, hurry baby
You can meet me over at the sugar shack
I got your sugar, I got your sweetness
I need your lovin', that's my weakness
[Verse 2]
Do you like me like this?
Tell me, baby, do you like?
I'm down for whatever turns you on
I've got a feeling deep inside me
That we like it similaire
And as they say it in France
Voulez vous right there
[Channel]
I know a place down by the tracks
Where they got a little jazz band
Such a sexy situation
We'll bust a bottle of Cristal
And just wait to see what happens
Come on, won't you come with me?
[Chorus]
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack
Quarter past eleven, oh, hurry baby
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack
I got your sugar, I got your sweetness
I need your lovin', that's my weakness
[Rap: Teena Marie]
Flashback, it was a real hot night
It was a love explosion, just like dynamite
You gave me sugar kisses, put 'em everywhere
Dishin' it out, you whipped it up, I swear
In the eleventh hour, when the moon was shining
Shining on my eyes and I was high
Signing "Come on, come on, won't you sweep back
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack."
Ooh sugar, sugar, sugar
Ooh sugar, sugar, sugar (Sugar Shack)
Ooh sugar, sugar, sugar
Ooh sugar...
You know, baby, sometimes all it takes is
Just a little sugar to get you through the day
(Such a sexy situation)
Won't you come with me?
[Chorus]
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack
Quarter past eleven, oh, hurry baby
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack
I got your sugar, I got your sweetness
I need your lovin', that's my weakness
[Chorus]
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack
I got your sugar, I got your sweetness
I need your lovin', that's my weakness
[Chorus]
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack (oh, baby)
You can meet me over at the Sugar Shack
I got your sugar, I got your sweetness
I need your lovin', that's my weakness
Ooh sugar, sugar, sugar
(Come on, baby, come on, baby, oh)
Ooh sugar, sugar, sugar
(Woo-hoo!)
Ooh sugar, sugar, sugar
Ooh sugar, sexy situation!
[Rap: Bernadette Cooper]
Alright. I'm here
Everybody's just standing up [?]
We gon' party, baby, party, baby
'Cause this is the place to be
I don't believe what these people are doing
But I'm not gonna accept it
I'm just gonna enjoy and take the ride
This is the place
Everybody knows the place
The Sugar Shack
I walked into the room
A hush fell on the whole place
Drop dead fine, just a diva with a purpose
I slide to the right
Everybody followed suit
Serious times, such a sexy situation
I walked into the room
A hush fell on the whole place
Drop dead fine, just a diva with a purpose
I slide to the right
Everybody followed suit
Serious times, such a sexy situation
I walked into the room (come on!)
A hush fell on the whole place
(A hush fell on the purpose)
Drop dead fine, just a diva with--
Two purposes! him and him
Girl?! We scandalous!
