I said, baby, mama, I don't know your name
But I said, baby, oh sugar, I can play your game.
Every night when we leave the hall, babe, I see you hangin' round.
You wanna ride in my black car, baby, wanna go uptown, yeah.

I know who you are, baby,
and I know what they call you, girl.
Never put you down, baby,
I'm just like you, baby, I'm on the hunt,
ooh and every night I'm a huntin', baby.

I know, lady, people gonna talk about you and me
But let me say one thing, mama, oh sugar, I do as I please.
And if you wanna love me, baby, oh I'm your man
And all those high-falutin' society people, I don't care if they don't understand.

I know who you are, baby,
and I know what they call you, girl.
I never put you down, baby,
I'm just like you, baby, I'm on the hunt,
ooh and every night I'm a huntin', baby.

My Daddy told me, baby, a long time ago:
There's a two things, son, there's a two things that you should know
And in these two things, baby, on you must take pride
And that's a horse, yeah, and a woman, yeah, oh both of them you ride,
Oh soul sister.

I know who you are, baby,
and 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 who you are, baby,
and I know what they call you, girl.
Never put you down, baby,
I'm like you, I'm always huntin',
ooh baby, I'm a huntin'.
