Welcome to "Nothing But the Blues" with me, Cliff. And that was from his album, "Hard Believer", which came up last year. And I noticed when I put the show together, there's a few tracks with numbers in the title. And I'm also returning to a few albums as well, like that one. I like this next one as well. This is Shakura Saida. [music] Baby, I've been watching you from way across the room. I got stuck to show you, but it might be a bit too soon. See, I can give you everything that a man thinks he needs. Before you jump into it, I'm not so easy to please. If you walk my brown sugar, sugar, babe. Got to work, got to work, brown sugar. Baby, baby, hey, hey, hey, hey, brown sugar, sugar, babe. Got to work real hard, brown sugar. Well, a man seldom talks unless he's got a plan installed. Woman simply tells you when she's in the mood for more. I don't want no complications, no ants, if so, buts. Just tell me when you're ready, and I won't have new fun. If you want my brown sugar, sugar, babe. Got to work, got to work, brown sugar, baby. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, brown sugar, sugar, babe. Got to work real hard, brown sugar.
