Leon Redbone Sugar Lyrics

From the Album "Sugar" (1990)

Have you heard what I've done
Found a word just for one
That takes the place of the one I used to call
Baby Doll

It ain't new, it ain't old
But if you do what you're told
You'll find an answer if you take a look
In Mr. Webster's dictionary book

Her word is sugar
I call my baby my sugar
I never ...... in my sugar
That's why my sugar is so confectionary

Funny, she never pleads for my money When she feeds me on honey
She gets to me's every time

I'd make a million trips to her lips
If I was a bee
'Cause they're sweeter than
Any candy to me

She's granulated sugar
I never cheat on my sugar
'Cause I'm too sweet on my sugar
That sugar baby of mine

Sugar, I get my taffy from sugar
Watch more I'm dancing by sugar
That sugar baby, that sugar baby of mine
