John Lee Hooker Sugar Mama Lyrics

Sugar mama, sugar mama, sugar mama please come back to me
Sugar mama, sugar mama, sugar mama please come back to me
Bring me my granulated sugar1, sugar mama, sugar mama
ease my misery

You've got this new grade of sugar, sugar mama, an you
done made me love it too
You've got this new grade of sugar, sugar mama, an you
done made me love it too
You've got this granulated sugar, sugar mama, ain't
nobody else got, but you

They been braggin' 'bout your sugar, sugar mama, been braggin' all over town
They been braggin' 'bout your sugar, sugar mama, braggin'
all over town
Now, the bootleggers2 want you to sell 'em enough to make
whiskey,
but you won't sell 'em about four or five pounds

I like my coffee sweet in the mornin', you know, an I'm
crazy 'bout my tea at night
I like my coffee sweet in the mornin', you know, an I'm
crazy 'bout my tea at night
Don't get my sugar three times a day, oh, Lord, then I
don't feel right
