Sonny Landreth - Sugar Cane lyrics

Once I had a little girl Brought a smile into my world So sweet she had a name Called her sugar cane Sugar cane was natural born Cajun from the country lord I swear she was the sweetest thing I loved that sugar cane Sugar cane would go to town And all the men folk turned around Makin' eyes they'd want to try To steal her away from me But I got my knife and I'd hold her hand So them boys would understand Don't mess around, I mean it man I love my sugar cane And then one day she had to leave And travel far away from me Lord, I was lonesome Like I'd never been before And then one night I fell asleep And dreamed she had come back to me And when I woke next morning Yes, she's knocking on my door I said, "Sugar cane Ya done come back baby Never gonna leave again"
