Need a Little Sugar in My Bowl Songtext
von Rory Block

Tired of bein′ lonely, tired of bein' blue
I wished I had some good man, to tell my troubles to
It 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 in 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 little sugar in my bowl


I need a little sugar in my bowl
I need a little hot dog between my roll
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
C′mon here drop somethin' in my bowl
Stop your foolin′, drop somethin' in my bowl

I need a little sugar in my bowl
I need a little hot dog between 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
And 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
C′mon here drop somethin' in my bowl
Stop your foolin′, drop somethin' in my bowl


And I′m tired of bein' alone, I′m tired of bein' blue
I just wish that I had some good man, to tell my troubles to
