Greg Brown - Shake Sugaree Lyrics
I have a little song and it won't take longAnd I'll sing it right once or twice-Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.Pawned my chair and I pawned my bed,and ain't got no place to lay my head.Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawnEverything I got.Grow my tobacco and I spit my juice-Well I would raise cain, but it ain't a bit of useOh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.Pawned my tobacco and I pawned my pipe,pawned everything that was in my sight.Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.I'm going sailing in a wooden shoelooking foir a star I could tell my troubles toOh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.First star to the right and it's straight on 'til morn,I never saw such such night since I was born.Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.Have a little secret; I ain't going to tell,I'm going to heaven in a brown pea shell.Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.Pawned my horse and I pawned my plow.pawned everything, even pawned my old milk cow.Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.Have a little secret and I ain't going to teel,I'm going to heaven and I'm not going to ....Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugareeEverything I got is in the pawn.Everything I got.Haver a little song and it won't take longI
