[Verse 1]
When they come to take you down
When they bring that wagon around
When they come to call on you and drag your poor body down
[Chorus]
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[x2]
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Well shake it up now Sugaree, I'll meet you at the jubilee
If that Jubilee don't come
Maybe I'll meet you on the run
[Chorus]
When they come to take you down
When they bring that wagon around
When they come to call on you and drag your poor body down
[Chorus]
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[x2]
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Well shake it up now Sugaree, I'll meet you at the jubilee
If that Jubilee don't come
Maybe I'll meet you on the run
[Chorus]
