Marcia Ball - Sugar Boogie lyrics

Way down south at harvest time People up and down the line Smell that kettle, piping hot Just a little bit will hit the spot Put it in your coffee, put it in your tea Sprinkle it on your pastry Cook it up or melt it down Serve it white or serve it brown Uh huh, a little sugar, yeah, a little sugar A little sugar makes your day complete Uh huh, a little sugar, yeah, a little sugar A little sugar, it ain't nothing but sweet If you're down and need a pick me up Put a teaspoon in your cup If it is romance you seek Give it to your mama right on the cheek Uh huh, a little sugar, yeah, a little sugar A little sugar makes your day complete Uh huh, a little sugar, yeah, a little sugar A little sugar, it ain't nothing but sweet Slow as mola**as, just as thick Red and white like a peppermint stick You can keep your mustard greens Just give me those pecan pralines Hear that music, it's the taffy man All those kids with money in their hands Follow that wagon down the street Getting that candy they love to eat Uh huh, a little sugar, yeah, a little sugar A little sugar makes your day complete Uh huh, a little sugar, yeah, a little sugar A little sugar, it ain't nothing but sweet
