Mos Def Black Star and Talib Kweli - Brown Skin Lady Lyrics

Brown skin lady, hey hey
Yes
Where you goin
This goes to the brown skin ladies
Brown skin lady
Yo, indigineous women of the planet earth
What you doin?
Givin birth to the brown skin ladies first
Brown skin lady
For what it's worth, from me to you
How do you feel?
From me to you, watchin you
I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the
Way you walk, yes, I live the way you move
I like the way you walk, when you walk on by
I like the way you move, I like the way you move
I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the

And everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing
Everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing, there she is

Fresher than Tony Rebel's vegetables at african street festivals
Where incredible women is, plentiful
Over the years I met a few, none of them compare to you
Preparing you to make fruit bearable, somethin terrible, let's see:
You fruitful, beautiful, smart, lovable, huggable
Doable like art, suitable to be part
Of my life, coppertone owe you copyright infringement, pay
You been this tan since way back in the day
It's like I'm standin there you know appreciatin God's design
And then you showed up, it's like you read my mind
Damn she's fine, I think I add the r-e, in front of that
And see if she d, to get, with a cat like me

I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the
Way you walk, yes, I live the way you move
I like the way you walk, when you walk on by
I like the way you move, I like the way you move
I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the
Way you walk, please, won't you do that dance
I like the way you walk, when you walk on by
I like the way you move, I like you baby

And everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing
Everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing, there she is

Ooh! Damn baby girl, look at you!
Comin on the block lookin fresh and brand new
Ooh! Headwrap cover your hairdo
Pretty feet peekin through open-toed shoe
Ooh! No limit to what I would do
Make love to you like long interview
Whooh! Is she for real, me like you
Good look champion, win the title
True, many man try invite you
Shot down lyric each time they cyph you
Jewel, what man, ya get born inside zoo?
Feet they walk way and just let she pass through
Ooh! can't be a next one like you
Famous like tapes made by DJ Clue
I tighten up my game as I approach you
Yo check her she the nectar the bee get close to

I don't get many compliments, but I am confident
Used to have a complex about, gettin too complex
You got me, willin to try, looked me in the eye
My head is still in the sky, since you walked on by
I'm feelin high, got my imagination flickerin like hot flames
It's how it seems, you make me wanna ride the Coltrane to A Love Supreme
My brown lady, creates environments, for
Happy brown babies, I know it sounds crazy
But your skin's the inspiration for cocoa butter
You provoke a brother we should get to know one another
I discover when I bring you through my people say true, all I can say
Is all praise due I thank you god for a beauty like you

Brown skin lady
Yes
Where you goin
This goes to the brown skin ladies
Brown skin lady
On the planet earth today, yes
What you doin?
Brown skin lady
How do you feel?

I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the
Way you walk, yes, I live the way you move
I like the way you walk, when you walk on by
I like the way you move, I like the way you move
I like the, I like the, I like the, I like the
Way you walk, yes, please do that dance
I like the way you walk, when you walk on by
I like the way you move, I like you baby

And everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing
Everybody on the avenue, I know, when they see us sing, there she is

There she is, she's a brown skinned lady
Such a brown skinned lady
She's a brown skinned lady
