Sugar Mama Peachy Papa - Percy Mayfield

Listen, sugar mama

I tried to love you but you just wasn’t treatin' me right

(Me?) Yes, you, sugar mama

I tried to love you but you just wasn’t treatin' me right

(What did I do wrong, peachy papa?)

You’re the kind of woman that plays too strong

Hey, from the days and the all night long

Don’t see enough of you to call my own

(Let me tell you…) No, you listen to me

I wanted you to be the one girl of my dreams

(Me?) Yes, you, sugar mama

I wanna prove that we can make a real gone team

Slaviola slavia

If you would learn to listen and do as I say

If you would learn to love me, honor, and obey

Then I know we could get along

Listen, peachy papa

I’ll be your groupie if you give me one more chance

(Who, me?) Yes, you, peachy papa

I want to live the life full of sweet romance

(Slaviola slavia)

I would learn to listen and do as you say

I would love to love you, honor, and obey

But you would have to be my own, my very own

(Let me tell you…) No, you listen to me

I want to prove that we can make a real gone team

(With me?) Yes, you, peachy papa

I want to be the one and only in your dream

(Slaviola slavia)

I would start living and doing what’s right

If you love me just a little every night

I know we could get along

Well, now that we both agree

Nothing’s the matter between you and me

We ought to get along

Sugar mama, (peachy papa)

I said we ought to get along
