My skin is yellowMy hair is longBetween two worldsI do belongMy father was rich and whiteHe forced my mother late one nightWhat do they call meMy name is SafroniaMy name is Safronia
My skin is tanMy hair’s alright, it’s fineMy hips invite youAnd my lips are like wineWhose little girl am I?Well yours if you have some money to buyWhat do they call meMy name is Sweet ThingMy name is Sweet Thing
My skin is brownAnd my manner is toughI’ll kill the first mother I seeCos my life has been too roughI’m awfully bitter these daysBecause my parents were slavesWhat do they call meMyNameIsPeaches
