lyrics

Brown Woman
Words and Music by Narciso Lobo, Jr.

Mm, your kisses taste like home to me
And when you smile I hear a sweet island song
Mm, we're moving in harmony
In this beautiful rhythm is where I belong

Brown woman give a brown man wings
Brown woman strum a brown man's strings
You ease my suffering
Hear this brown man sing
Brown woman's where a brown man's from
A brown woman calling make a brown man come
You're sweeter than honey rum
Brown woman, brown woman

Mm, you love me like a summer breeze
Through the mango trees on an ocean shore, yeah
Mm, your skin gets me drunk just as well
As a bottle of San Miguel, let me drink some more

Brown woman give a brown man wings
Brown woman strum a brown man's strings
You ease my suffering
Hear this brown man sing
Brown woman's where a brown man's from
A brown woman calling make a brown man come
You're sweeter than honey rum
Brown woman, brown woman

Like a summer breeze through the mango trees
You love me sweet and slow
Like a slow jam sung in our island tongue
You move me down below
When you're not beside me baby
When you're gone and I'm alone
Umiiyak, umiiyak, ang puso ko, yeah
(My heart cries)
Umiiyak, umiiyak

Brown woman give a brown man wings
Brown woman strum a brown man's strings
You ease my suffering
Hear this brown man sing
Brown woman's where a brown man's from
A brown woman calling make a brown man come
You're sweeter than honey rum
Brown woman, brown woman

Mm
