Sugaree

When they come to take you down
When they bring that wagon 'round
When they come to call on you
And drag your body down

Just one thing I ask of you
Is just one thing for me
Please forget you knew my name
My darling, Sugaree

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me
Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me, yeah

You thought you was the cool fool
And never could do no wrong
You had everything sewed up tight
So how come you lie awake all night?

Just one thing I ask of you
Just one thing for me
Please forget you know my name
My darling, Sugaree

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me
Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Well, in spite of all you gained
You still had to stand out in the pouring rain
One last voice is calling you
And I guess it's time you go

Just one thing I ask of you
Just one thing for me
Please forget you know my name
My darling, Sugaree

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me
Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
I'll meet you at the jubilee
If that jubilee don't come
Maybe I'll meet you out on the run

Just one thing I ask of you
Is just one thing for me
Please forget you know my name
My darling, Sugaree

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me
Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me
Shake it, shake it, Sugaree
Just don't tell 'em that you know me
