ORIGINAL LYRICS
Have you heard these blues
That
I'm gonna sing to you
When you hear them they will thrill you
Through and through
There the sweetest blues you ever heard
Now listen and don't say a word
Sugar blues
Everybody's singing the sugar blues
The whole towns ringing
My loving man sweet as can be
But the doggone fools
Turned sour on me
I'm so unhappy
Feel so unhappy
I could lay me down a die
You could say what you choose
But I'm all confused
I got the sweet, sweet sugar blues
More sugar
I've got the sugar blues
Sugar blues
Every singing the sugar blues
My loving man sweet as can be
But the doggone fools
Turned sour on me
I'm so unhappy
Feel so unhappy
I could lay me down a die
You could say what you choose
But I'm all confused
I got the sweet, sweet sugar blues
More sugar
I've got the sugar blues
Yea!
