lyrics

© 2013 Woodrow Thomas

My sugar cane and my sugar bee, sho do mean the world to me.
There's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.

I don't need to explain, gotta have my sugar cane.
There's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.

Well, my woman suits me fine, gives me sugar all the time.
And there's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.

If you're feelin' kinda down, take your money and lay it down.
Cause there's nothin' that gets you through, like sugar do.

Sugar Daddy, what I say, I need sugar every day.
Cause there's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.

I told my baby to go away, so my side girl could come and play.
And there's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.

In my coffee and in my tea, sugar be the death of me.
And there's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.

It's a bad and bitter world. I got a sweet tooth for my girl.
And there's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.

The Candy Man come around, cause he owns half of this town.
And there's nothin' that gets you through, like your sugar do.

Well a woman keeps me alive. I got to have four or five.
And there's nothin' that gets you through, like your sugar do.

My sugar cane and my sugar bee, sho do mean the world to me.
There's nothin' that gets me through, like my sugar do.
