You're My Sugar - Tennessee Ernie Ford/Kay Starr Lyrics

Chorus:
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me

Ernie:
You are my one and only
The only one I've kissed

Kay:
But that black book in your pocket, honey
Ain't a grocery list

Ernie:
I took you to a night club
To have a bang-up time

Kay:
We wound up washing dishes
'cause you didn't have a dime

Chorus:
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me

Kay:
I ordered you a collar
Right from the catalog

Ernie:
And now I can't quit barkin'
'cause the collar's for a dog

Kay:
The next day I sent you neckties
Did you like the ties you got?

Ernie:
How come you tied the neckties, honey
Like a hangman's knot?

Chorus:
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me

(Les Paul guitar break 8 measures)

Ernie:
The diamond ring I bought you
Was nothin' but the best Tennessee Ernie Ford - You're My Sugar - Tennessee Ernie Ford/Kay Starr - http://motolyrics.com/tennessee-ernie-ford/youre-my-sugar-tennessee-ernie-ford-kay-starr-lyrics.html

Kay:
But you only paid a dollar down
I had to pay the rest

Ernie:
What happened to the fur coat
I bought the other day?

Kay:
Well that new fur coat you bought me
Just got up and walked away!

Chorus:
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me

Kay:
Well, I knitted you some golf socks
With fancy heels and soles

Ernie:
I guess they call 'em golf socks
'Cause they both have 18 holes

Ernie:
I promised you a pony
I promised you a yacht

Kay:
A saddle and a paddle, boy
Was all I ever got

Chorus:
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
But you're never sweet to me

Ernie:
I'm a-getting' tired of fightin'
Been at it all my life

Kay:
Well the way we always get along
We should be Man and Wife

Chorus:
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
You're My Sugar
And I am sweet on You!
