lyrics

My sweet and low down love don't come in no sugar packet,
No, he won't sweeten your tea
My sweet and low down love don't run around town, no
He won't lend his sugar to nobody but me

Ask anyone, they'll tell you, a pair as sweet as we, you never saw
Back when we were together, me and my darling sugar in the raw

A sweeter thing you never saw,
me and my sugar in the raw
I beg you don't despair,
my golden honey bear

My darling sugar pie, I
left down there on that plane earth,
but I didn't choose to leave, you see
Please try to understand, love,
the train that I rode wasn't up to me

I beg of you, don't despair, oh pretty puddle on a spoon
My golden honey bear, please, glisten still under that full moon

My sweet and low down love bears the weight of his long lost sugar,
he won't take no honey in his tea
Now that he's all alone-some,
he won't never love nobody like he loved me

A sweeter thing you never saw,
me and my sugar in the raw
I beg you don't despair,
my golden honey bear

My sweet and low down love, now, I watch over
hoping one day he'll stroll happily
My sweet and low down love, I love you still so,
won't you try to love another like you once loved me
