Written by：Quincy Jones/Rod Temperton/Lionel B./Jr. Richie

Sister you've been on my mind

Sister we're two of a kind

So sister I'm keepin' my eye on you

I betcha think I don't know nothin

But singin' the blues oh sister

Have I got news for you I'm something

I hope you think that you're something too

Scufflin' I been up that lonesome road

And I seen alot of suns going down

Oh but trust me

No low life's gonna run me around

So let me tell you something sister

Remember your name no twister

Gonna steal your stuff away my sister

We sho' ain't got a whole lot of time

So-o-o shake your shimmy sister

'Cause honey the 'shug' is feelin' fine
