Poor Little Sugar Lyrics by The Honeydogs

10,000 Years

2004

[Verse 1]
Last night
Went to public housing with my mom and sister
Alright
Now we're on the bottom of the waitin' list there
[Chorus]
Poor little sugar, you've seen too much
You've seen too much too young. (Too young)
[Verse 2]
Daddy's workin' hard
He's got nothin' saved
Selling used typewriters
Diggin' his own grave
[Chorus 2]
Poor little sugar, you've seen too much
You've seen too much too young. (Too young)
Poor little sugar
Sorry that we gave you this world
Poor little sugar
You've gotta make the best of whatcha got
[Verse 3]
Last Fall
I just shot my uncle 'cause he stole her 8-ball
I said Mama
Why'd you do it, there's another at the pool hall
[Chorus 3]
Poor little sugar, you've seen too much
You've seen too much too young. (Too young)
Poor little sugar
Sorry that we gave you this world
Poor little sugar
You've gotta make the best of whatcha got
Poor little sugar
Sorry that we gave you this world
Poor little sugar
You've gotta make the best of whatcha got
[Verse 4]
Seen it in their eyes
Goes from gold to rust
From first-class
To gravy mop-up at the Stardust
[Verse 5]
Homicide
Bearing hell's angels and a nation of eyes
On the north side
Flashing new kicks and a coat in a man's size
Some say we never made it
Some say the future's fadin'
[Chorus 3]
Poor little sugar
Sorry that we gave you this world
Poor little sugar
You've gotta make the best of whatcha got
Poor little sugar
Sorry that we gave you this world
Poor little sugar
You've gotta make the best of whatcha got, alright
[Outro]
Poor little sugar
Poor little sugar, you've seen too much
Poor little sugar, you've seen too much
Poor little sugar, you've seen too much
Poor little sugar, you've seen too much
Poor little sugar
