| Our love was sweetest in the spring
|
| And when you gave a wedding ring
|
| I gave to you this golden vow
|
| I got no sugar baby now
|
| I got no honey baby now
|
| I got no honey baby now
|
| Before they caught us in a lie
|
| We crossed our hearts, prepared to die
|
| We crossed our hearts, prepared to die
|
| Down where the cold waters flow
|
| Down where the brushes overgrow
|
| That’s where my baby’s sleeping, oh
|
| I got no sugar baby now
|
| I got no honey baby now
|
| I got no honey baby now
|
| We went to jail without a shout
|
| The night they came to find us out
|
| The night they came to find us out
|
| But all your money set you free
|
| And saved you from the gallows tree
|
| And saved you from the hanging bough
|
| I got no sugar baby now
|
| I got no honey baby now
|
| I got no honey baby now |
