Sugaree

When they come to take you down

When they bring that wagon 'round

When they come to call on you

And drag your poor body down

Just one thing I ask of you

Just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name

My darling, Sugary

Shake it, shake it, Sugary

Just don't tell 'em you know me

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

Thought you was a cool fool And never could do no wrong

And everything's sewn up tight How come you lay awake all night long?

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling, Sugary

Shake it, shake it, Sugary

Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Shaker, shaker, sugary

Just don't tell 'em that you know me

You know in spite of all you gain

You still had to stand out in the pouring rain

One last voice is calling you

I guess it's time you go

Just one thing I ask of you

Just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name

My darlin' sugary

Shake it, shake it, sugary

Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Shake it, shake it, sugary

Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Shake it up now, sugary I'll meet you at the jubilee

If the jubilee don't come Baby, I'll meet you on the run

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling, sugary

Shake it, shake it, sugary

Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Shake it, shake it, sugary

Just don't tell 'em that you know me

Shake it, shake it, sugary

Just don't tell 'em that you know me

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

Yeah
