Sugar Baby (1927 Recording) Lyrics by Dock Boggs

Country Blues: Complete Early Recordings (1927-29)

0

Oh I've got no sugar baby now
All I can do is to seek peace with you
And I can't get along this a-way
Can't get along this a-way
All I can do, I've said all I can say
I'll send it to your mama next payday
Send you to your mama next payday
I got no use for the red rockin' chair
I've got no honey baby now
Got no sugar baby now
Who'll rock the cradle, who'll sing the song
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone?
I'll rock the cradle, I'll sing the song
I'll rock the cradle when you gone
I'll rock the cradle when you gone
All I can do, I've said all I can say
I will send you to your mama next payday
Laid her in the shade, give her every dime I made
What more could a poor boy do
What more could a poor boy do?
Oh I've got no honey baby now
Got no sugar baby now
Said all I can say, I've done all I can do
And I can't make a living with you
Can't make a living with you
