You're My Sugar
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar but you're never sweet to me
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar, but you're never sweet to me
Now you are my one and only
The only one I've kissed
But that black book in your pocket
Ain't a grocery list
Well I took you to a nightclub
Just to have a bang up time
Well I wound up washin' dishes
'Cause you didn't have a dime
Uh oh
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar but you're never sweet to me
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar, but you're never sweet to me
Elizabeth
I bought you fancy collars
Right from that catalog
Yeah but now I can't quit barkin'
'Cause the collars are for a dog
Well then how 'bout them neckties
Did you like those ties I bought?
I did, but how come you tied the neckties honey
Just like a hangman's knot
Oh, I did I?
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar but you're never sweet to me, naw
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar, but you're never sweet to me
Owww
That diamond ring I bought ya
Honey it was nothing but the best
But you only paid a dollar down
And I had to pay the rest
Then what happened to that fur coat
That I bought the other day
Well that new fur coat you bought me
Just got up and walked away
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar but you're never sweet to me, naw
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar, but you're never sweet to me
I knitted you some golf socks
With fancy heels and toes
I guess you'd call 'em golf socks
'Cause they both had eighteen holes
Hey
I promised you a pony
You did
And I promised you a yacht
Aw, but a saddle and a paddle
Is all I ever got
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar but you're never sweet to me, naw
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar, but you're never sweet to me
Now listen, I'm gettin' tired of fightin'
So am I
Been at it most my life
Well the way we always get along
We should be man and wife
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar, and I am sweet on you
I love you sugar
Aww, I love you too sugar
You're my sugar but you're never sweet to me
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
You're my sugar, but you're never sweet to me
Now you are my one and only
The only one I've kissed
But that black book in your pocket
Ain't a grocery list
Well I took you to a nightclub
Just to have a bang up time
Well I wound up washin' dishes
'Cause you didn't have a dime

You're my sugar but you're never sweet to me
You're my sugar, you're my sugar
