Sugarcane Lyrics

(Spoken)
My ladies! Hahahaha! You know you gotta run away with me to the Islands. Ha! Shaggy!
(Sung)
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa
My Sugarcane
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa
(Sugarcane)
She said she's tired of the city life
Says she wants a simple life
Tell me seh she need me want to settle down and be my wife
Introduce her to the Island life
She says it's everything that she likes
We bought some fruits from the fruit stand
Roots from the Roots Man

Coconut water well we get it from the Jelly Man
She had a piece of my Sugarcane
From then she hasn't been the same
She says
No bright lights no fame
Caviar or Champagne
She wanna be a plane old Jane
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
It ain't hard to explain
How this girl rocks my brain
She likes being a plane old Jane
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
Girl the ain't no substitute
Don't you worry about the loot
Wanna be a mommy ripe and ready for a couple youths
Forever on this island cruise
Tell me baby how can we lose?
She love the Ackee and the Salt Fish
Yam from the Market
Sweet Cocoa Tea or some real Hot Chocolate
But when she taste my Sugarcane
From then she hasn't been the same
She says
No bright lights no fame
Caviar or Champagne
She wanna be a plane old Jane
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
It ain't hard to explain
How this girl rocks my brain
She likes being a plane old Jane
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
No bright lights no fame
Caviar or Champagne
She wanna be a plane old Jane
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
It ain't hard to explain
How this girl rocks my brain
She likes being a plane old Jane
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa
She likes the taste of my Sugarcane!!!

R.e.m.

R.E.M. were an alternative rock band formed in Athens, Georgia, United States in 1980. The band originally consisted of Michael Stipe (vocals), Peter Buck (guitar, mandolin), Mike Mills (bass, keyboards, vocals) and Bill Berry (drums). Berry retired from the band in October 1997 after having suffered a brain aneurysm in 1995.

R.E.M. released its first single, "Radio Free Europe", in 1981 on the independent record label Hib-Tone. The single was followed by the Chronic Town EP in 1982, the band's first release on I.R.S. Records. In 1983, the group released its critically acclaimed debut album, Murmur, and built its reputation over the next few years through subsequent releases, constant touring, and the support of college radio. Following years of underground success, R.E.M. achieved a mainstream hit in 1987 with the single "The One I Love". The group signed to Warner Bros. Records in 1988, and began to espouse political and environmental concerns while playing large arenas worldwide.

By the early 1990s, when alternative rock began to experience broad mainstream success, R.E.M. was viewed as a pioneer of the genre and released its two most commercially successful albums, Out of Time (1991) and Automatic for the People (1992), which veered from the band's established sound. R.E.M.'s 1994 release, Monster, was a return to a more rock-oriented sound. The band began its first tour in six years to support the album; the tour was marred by medical emergencies suffered by three band members. In 1996, R.E.M. re-signed with Warner Bros. for a reported US$80 million, at the time the most expensive recording contract in history. The following year, Bill Berry left the band, while Buck, Mills, and Stipe continued the group as a three-piece. Through some changes in musical style, the band continued its career into the next decade with mixed critical and commercial success. In 2007, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

On 21 September 2011, after over 30 years together, R.E.M. announced that they had split up.
