JERRY GARCIA

- Sugaree Lyrics

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 darlin Sugaree

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

You thought you was the cool fool Never could do no wrong Had everything sewed 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 darlin Sugaree

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

You know in spite of all you gained you still have 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 knew my name My darlin Sugaree

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

Shake it up now, Sugaree I'll meet you at the Jubilee If that Jubilee don't come Maybe I'll meet you on the run

One thing I ask of you Just one thing for me Please forget you knew my name my darling Sugaree

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

What is the meaning behind Sugaree lyrics?


When we interpret the meaning being expressed, in 'Sugaree' by Jerry Garcia, the protagonist directly speaks to another person who has to deal with the consequences of his/her actions and urges him/her to stay away from him/her in order to protect the singer's name. The metaphor of 'Sugaree' is a request for (very) close keeping and discretion in a difficult situation, stressing the necessity of still keeping up appearances, though being quite the contrary under the skin. The lyrics of Sugaree mostly point at love, heartbreak, memory, nostalgia and beauty. In contrast, the song also points out the significance of one's identity and anonymity, loss and yearning, and the power of resilience and moving on. The lyrics present loss and yearning as themes that could be in some cases too mature for younger children and would thus require parental guidance. Although there are no direct associations with violence, sex, and drugs, the emotional aspects and some words used might not be suitable for all kids.
