Sugar, sugar
Don't you call me sugar, sugar
Lover, lover
Don't you call me lover, lover
Sweet thing, sweet thing
Don't you call me sweet thing, sweet thing
Baby, baby
Don't you call me baby, baby

I just want to be your man
Why can't you just understand?
Everytime you go away
Always here I have to stay
I need you, so please stay near
'Cause it's you I love so dear
Anything you say or do
'Cause you know I'll see you through
Sugar, sugar (sugar)
Sugar

Sugar, sugar
I just want you near me
Baby, baby
I don't think you hear me
Baby, baby
Yes, you are my sweet thing
Lover, lover
I just want you, sweet thing

I just want to be your man
Why can't you just understand?
Everytime you go away
Always here I have to stay
I need you, so please stay near
'Cause it's you I love so dear
Anything you say or do
'Cause you know I'll see you through
Sugar, sugar (sugar)
Sugar

Sugar, sugar
Don't you call me sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar
Lover, lover
I used to be, I used to be, I used to be, your one and only lover
Sweet thing, sweet thing
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh hah hah hah hahh
Baby, baby
Oh baby, oh baby, oohh baby

I just want to be your man
Why can't you just understand?
Everytime you go away
Always here I have to stay
I need you, so please stay near
'Cause it's you I love so dear
Anything you say or do
'Cause you know I'll see you through
Sugar, sugar (sugar, sugar)
Sugar

Don't you call me, sugar
Sugar, sugar
Yes, you are my sweet thing ('Cause I know some' now)
Lover, lover (What a thing to tell me)
I just want you near me (When we're no longer together)
Sweet thing, sweet thing (That's what you say)
I just wanna kiss you (When you walked away)
Baby, baby (Everything's alright tonight)
Want you here beside me (But what about tomorrow?)

Sugar, sugar
Yes, you are my sweet thing (I wanna be, I wanna be your sweet thing)
Lover, lover
I just want you near me (Everytime I go away, I can't stay)
Sweet thing, sweet thing
I just wanna kiss you (Kiss me baby, love me baby)
Baby, baby
Want you here beside me (Even though you do me wrong, I'm always there when you go home)

Sugar, sugar
Yes, you are my sweet thing (I wanna be, I wanna be your sweet thing)
Lover, lover
Want you here beside me (I wanna be with you, baby)
Sweet thing, sweet thing
I just wanna kiss you (Kiss me baby)
Baby, baby
Want you here beside me (I wanna be close to you)

Sugar, sugar
Yes, you are my sweet thing (Hey, hey, hey)
Lover, lover
Want you here beside me (Ooh, ooh baby)
Sweet thing, sweet thing (I don't care what my friends say)
I just wanna kiss you (I wanna love you anyway, yeah)

All my love, all my lovin'
Ooh you, ooh you, ooh with you, ooh baby
