Lyrics:
“SUGAR BLUES” Words by Lucy Fletcher. Music by Clarence Williams. Copyright 1919 Key C
“ Have you heard these blues that I’m goin’ to sing to you?
When you hear them they will thrill you thro’ and thro’
They’re the sweetest blues you ever heard;
Now listen and don’t say a word:
CHORUS: “Sugar Blues, everybody’s singing the sugar blues; the
Whole town is ringing my lovin’ man’s sweet as he can be but
The doggone fool turned sour on me
I’m so unhappy, I feel so bad, I could lay me down and die
You can say what you choose, but I’m all confused; I’ve got the sweet sugar blues ,
More sugar; I’ve got the sweet, sweet sugar blues “
