Greatful Dead Sugaree Lyrics

Sugaree Lyrics

When they come to take you down When they bring that wagon 'round 

 When they come to call on you and drag your poor body down 

  

 Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me 

 Please forget you know my name, my darling Sugaree 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

  

 You thought you was the cool fool and never could do no wrong 

 Had everything sewed up tight. How come you lay awake all night long 

  

 Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me 

 Please forget you know my name, my darling Sugaree 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

  

 Well in spite of all you gained you still had to stand out in the pouring rain


 One last voice is calling you and I guess it's time you go 

  

 Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me 

 Please forget you know my name, my darling Sugaree 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

  

 Well shake it up now Sugaree, I'll meet you at the jubilee 

  

 Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me 

 Please forget you know my name, my darling Sugaree 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me 

 Shake it, shake it sugaree, just don't tell them that you know me
