Sugaree

[Verse 1]

When they come to take you down

When they bring that wagon 'round

When they come to call on you

And drag your body down

[Pre-Chorus]

Just one thing I ask of you, is just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree

[Chorus]

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

[Verse 2]

You thought you was the cool fool

And never could do no wrong

You had everything sewed up tight

So how come you lie awake all night?

[Pre-Chorus]

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree

[Chorus]

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

[Verse 3]

Well, in spite of all you gained

You still had to stand out in the pouring rain

One last voice is calling you

And I guess it's time you go

[Pre-Chorus]

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree

[Chorus]

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

(Shake it, shake it, Sugaree)

(Shake it, shake it, Sugaree)

[Bridge]

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

I'll meet you at the Jubilee

If that Jubilee don't come

Maybe I'll meet you out on the run

[Pre-Chorus]

Just one thing I ask of you, is just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree

[Chorus]

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it, Sugaree

Just don't tell them that you know me
