Sugah Daddy Lyrics

It's just the way she's so raw and uncut, good god
She needs a spankin' to shake her up
And I just wish that I could open her up, yeh
To this deeper place of love
High priced snake skin on her arm (oooh)
Lace satin covering up her charms
You shoulda seen the way they tossed and turned
The way she made the congregation squirm

Girl's got a worldly view
Apparently she sees through you
Her love was never meant to share for two
She said I'll do it if you'll be my Sugah Daddy

Take a note from my philosophy
I'ma give her what she need
Can't snatch the meat out of the lioness' mouth
Sometimes you gotta just
Ease it out
I give her a pacifier
I fill my baby's crib with all the sweetness Daddy wants to give
And when it comes to rocking her to sleep, I'll never tire
This is the way I pat my baby on the butt, good god
She had me hooked with only just one glance yeah
She need a spankin', baby, that's wussup
Lawd, Lawd
You say you wanna be the one she
Chooses to star in her meaningless romance

Girl's got a worldly view
What's a sassy girl to do
And if the decision was left up to me
You best believe that I would be her sugah daddy

Brown eyes that will make you blue
Eyes that'll see right through you
She crossed her fingers when she said her vows
She said I promise that I'll sock it to you, Daddy

So I take the child to my crib
I ain't gonna tell you what we did
I hit it so I made the pussy fart
She said it's talkin' to, talkin' to ya, Daddy!

Sugah Daddy Song Chart

This piano-driven, Prince-influenced tune was first performed by D'Angelo during his live concerts back in 2012. The studio version features veteran session legend James Gadson, who is one of the most-recorded drummers in the history of R&B music, and Welsh bassist Pino Palladino - he was Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey's first choice to fill the position left by John Entwistle as the bassist for The Who.

D'Angelo co-wrote the track with Q-Tip. D'Angelo supplied guest vocals on the hip hop artist's 2008 cut "Believe," one of several collaborations the R&B crooner did during the long 14-year gap between Black Messiah and its predecessor, Voodoo.

A 'sugar daddy' is a rich man who lavishes expensive gifts on his much younger female partner. The expression is of American origin and is derived from the slang sugar "money" and colloquial daddy "father."
