"Gangsta Groove"
(John T. Smith / D'Wayne Wiggins / Raphael Wiggins)

[Intro:]
Gangsta groove, gangsta groove, aah, this is a gangsta groove
Dah-dah-dah-dah...aah
Dah-dah-dah-dah...aah
Dah-dah-dah-dah...aah
Dah-dah-dah-dah...aah

[Verse 1: Raphael Saadiq]
He's just a man on the streets that's trying to run all the ladies, ladies
He's telling you he's good for you but it's not true, so listen baby, baby
But when I hold you tight...

[Pre-Chorus:]
When I kiss and hold you tight in the middle of the night
(In the middle of the night)
Touch and rub your body down will make you feel alright
(Make you feel alright)
And when I kiss and hold you tight in the middle of the night
I will buy you everything 'cause you're my million-dollar baby
(Sugar Daddy)

[Chorus:]
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
(Tell 'em, Wayne...)

[Verse 2: D'Wayne Wiggins]
Age of 17, he ran and caught a train
To another town where no one knew his name
Ran into a man who said he hipped him to the game
(They told him) Boy, you stick with me and I'll teach you every, everything

[Pre-Chorus:]
When I kiss and hold you tight in the middle of the night
(In the middle of the night, baby)
Touch and rub your body down will make you feel alright
(On and on and on, on and on, on and on)
And when I kiss and hold you tight in the middle of the night
(Yeah, in the middle of the night)
I will buy you everything 'cause you're a million-dollar baby
(Sugar Daddy)

[Chorus:]
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
(Now tell 'em, Raphael...)

[Bridge: Raphael Saadiq]
Ran away from me, and now I think you see
You left me for a man who put you on the streets, oh girl
Now you sell yourself, and all respect is gone
But, you're leaving now, I wanna take you home

[Interlude]

Say, hey, mack daddy, is that your car parked out front?
Yeah, man, that's my car parked out front
Man, you ain't got that kinda money
What, I got more than that type of money
That's $35,000, right-$35,000 that Wayne gave me, right?
Right
$5,000 that Tim gave me, right?
I feel you
That's $40,000, right?
Right
Plus, $2,000 that Raphael gave me, right?
Right
That's $42,000-brother, can you buy that?

[Pre-Chorus:]
(When I hold you tight...)
When I kiss and hold you tight in the middle of the night
(In the middle of the night, baby)
Touch and rub your body down will make you feel alright
(Will make you feel alright)
And when I kiss and hold you tight in the middle of the night
I will buy you everything 'cause you're my million-dollar baby
(Sugar Daddy...oh-ah...Sugar Daddy)

[Chorus:]
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
He loves doing things to make him happy
I guess that's why they call him Sugar Daddy
He loves doing things to make him happy...
