Need a Little Sugar in My Bowl Songtext
Tired of bein′ lonely, tired of bein' blue
I wished I had some good man to tell my troubles to
Seem like the whole world′s wrong
Since my man's been gone
I need a little sugar in my bowl
I need a little hot dog on my roll
I can stand a bit of lovin', oh so bad
I feel so funny, I feel so sad
I need a little steam-heat on my floor
Maybe I can fix things up so they′ll go
What′s the matter hard papa
Come on and save your mama's soul
′Cause I need a little sugar in my bowl, doggone it
I need a some sugar in my bowl
I need a little sugar in my bowl
I need a little hot dog between my rolls
You gettin' different, I′ve been told
Move your finger, drop something in my bowl
I need a little steam-heat on my floor
Maybe I can fix things up so they'll go
Get off your knees, I can′t see what you're drivin' at
It′s dark down there looks like a snake!
C′mon here and drop somethin' here in my bowl
Stop your foolin′ and drop somethin' in my bowl
I wished I had some good man to tell my troubles to
Seem like the whole world′s wrong
Since my man's been gone
I need a little sugar in my bowl
I need a little hot dog on my roll
I can stand a bit of lovin', oh so bad
I feel so funny, I feel so sad
I need a little steam-heat on my floor
Maybe I can fix things up so they′ll go
What′s the matter hard papa
Come on and save your mama's soul
′Cause I need a little sugar in my bowl, doggone it
I need a some sugar in my bowl
I need a little sugar in my bowl
I need a little hot dog between my rolls
You gettin' different, I′ve been told
Move your finger, drop something in my bowl
I need a little steam-heat on my floor
Maybe I can fix things up so they'll go
Get off your knees, I can′t see what you're drivin' at
It′s dark down there looks like a snake!
C′mon here and drop somethin' here in my bowl
Stop your foolin′ and drop somethin' in my bowl
