Shake Sugaree (1) |
Have a little song, |
won’t take long. |
Sing it right, |
once or twice. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Pawned my watch. |
Pawned my chain. |
Pawned everything that was in my name. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Pawned my buggy, |
horse and cat. |
Pawned everything that was on my lot. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Pawned my chair. |
Pawned my bed. |
Ain’t got nowhere to lay my head. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Pawned my tobacco. |
Pawned my pipe. |
Pawned everything that was in my sight. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Have a little secret i ain’t gonna tell. |
I’m goin' to heaven in a brown pea shell. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Pawned my farm. |
Pawned my plough. |
Pawned everything, even pawned my own cow. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Pawned my hat. |
Pawned my shoes. |
Pawned everything that i could use. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Have a little secret i ain’t gonna tell. |
I’m goin' to heaven and i ain’t goin' no… |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Chew my tobacco. |
Spit my juice. |
We raise cain but it ain’t nothing a use. |
Oh, Lordy me. |
Didn’t I shake sugaree? |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
Everything I got is done and pawned. |
