[Verse 1]
Yeah, gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields
Sold in the market down in New Orleans
Scarred old slaver knows he's doing alright
You shoulda heard him just around midnight

[Chorus]
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good?
Brown sugar, just like a young gal should

[Verse 2]
Yeah, drums beating, cold English blood runs hot
Lady of the house wonderin' when it's gonna stop
House boy knows he's doing alright
You shoulda heard him just around midnight

[Chorus]
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good?
Brown sugar, just like a young gal should
Rock it out

[Chorus]
Brown sugar, how come you taste so good?
Yeah, brown sugar, just like a young gal should

[Verse 3]
Yeah, I bet your mama was a tent show queen
And all her boyfriends were sweet sixteen
I'm no schoolboy, I know what I like
You shoulda heard 'em just around midnight

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Thank you! Thank you so much! Los Angeles, I hope you all got ten dollars back. See you later

[Audience starts to boo]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Yes, yes, indeed, you thought that might happen right? It's, it's a convention. Um, so we're gonna do, we're gonna do a bit of a tribute to B.B. King who's one of our favorite guitarists. He's a wonderful guy and he played with us on several occasions and we really loved his music and loved him as a guy who's really brilliant. So we're gonna do this song called "Rock Me Baby."

The Rolling Stones

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
