“I’m just like you, baby I’m on the hunt.” — Lynyrd Skynyrd

---

Long time ago, my mama told me two things: one big black thing, and all them sugar things I know can please a man.

Mama said girl, I know you don't understand, but a woman should never play society game.

Well, baby, I know you love me. And if you know who you are, take pride - sugar daddy hunting people uptown every night.

Baby, I’m like you. Just say when we leave, and you and I ride your night horse.

Baby, both you and I put down those highfalutin people.

These things they said I do? Yeah, baby, I must go, I'm hanging your lady. I don't care if they gonna hunt every son.

Me, I'm want, baby. I want to see you around the hall, I want to ride you in my car. Don't let me know your name. I call you baby, baby.

Original lyrics:

I said baby mama, I don't know your name

But I said baby, sugar I can play your game

Every night when we leave the hall

I see you hanging around

You want to ride in my big black car baby

Want to go uptown

I know who you are baby

I know what they call you girl

Never put you down baby

I'm just like you baby, I'm on the hunt

I know lady

People gonna talk about you and me

Let me say one thing mama, sugar I do as I please

And if you want to love me baby, I'm your man

And all those highfalutin society people

I don't care if they don't understand

I know who you are baby

I know what they call you girl

Never put you down baby

I'm just like you baby, I'm on the hunt

My daddy told me a long time ago

Said there's two things son

Two things you should know

And in these two things you must take pride

That's a horse and woman, yeah

Well both of them you ride
