Sweetness
Can this be really true?
Oh, how I wish I had you
I wonder what the guys have said to you
Hey honey
I seriously hope what they're saying is something true
Hope they tell you, you've got heaven in your eyes
Saying you're a blessing wouldn't be a lie
And if they didn't call you sweetness
And if they didn't call you niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess they didn't tell you nothing, no
And if they didn't call you sweetness
And if they didn't call you niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess they didn't tell you nothing, no, no, no, no
Brothers keep forgetting they leave their women at home
With lust in their hearts, they keep looking on and on, and on, and on
Guess you got something every woman's craving for
I myself wish I had you behind my door
I just wanna call you sweetness
I just wanna call you niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess they just don't call you nothing, no
I just wanna call you sweetness
I just wanna call you niceness
How about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess I just don't call you nothing, no, no, no
Wish I had you for myself
Hate to share you with even your momma and your dadda
Can't help but want you, can't help but need you
Oh, I need you, I need you for myself, oh no, no
Maybe it's because I'm an African
Yes I am
Got to feast my eyes on more than one woman every time
But whatever race or culture I belong
The blind would look at you and see there's nothing wrong
He would've wanna call you sweetness
He would've wanna call niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Every man would want to tell you something
I just don't wanna call you sweetness
I just don't wanna call niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess I just don't tell you nothing, no
Wonder what the guys have said to you
Yeah, honey
I seriously hope what they're saying is something true
Hope they tell you, you've got heaven in your eyes
Saying you're a blessing wouldn't be a lie
And if they didn't call you sweetness
And if they didn't call you niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess they didn't call you nothing, no
And if they didn't call you sweetness
And if they didn't call you niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess they didn't call you nothing, no
And if they didn't call you sweetness
And if they didn't call you niceness
And if they didn't call you dumpling
I guess they didn't call you nothing, no
And if they didn't call you sweetness, niceness
Shake it baby
It won't be nothing at all
Sweetness-
Oh, how I wish I had you
I wonder what the guys have said to you
Hey honey
I seriously hope what they're saying is something true
Hope they tell you, you've got heaven in your eyes
Saying you're a blessing wouldn't be a lie
And if they didn't call you sweetness
And if they didn't call you niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess they didn't tell you nothing, no
And if they didn't call you sweetness
And if they didn't call you niceness
And how about sugar dumpling?
Then I guess they didn't tell you nothing, no, no, no, no
Brothers keep forgetting they leave their women at home
With lust in their hearts, they keep looking on and on, and on, and on
Guess you got something every woman's craving for

Shake it baby
