lyrics

Late this morning, front desk is calling
Ten more minutes, I’m gonna miss the free buffet
But this thing is stronger than the morning hunger
If I keep this up, I’ll have to pay the extra day
You know that nightie…that naughty nightie?
The one you wore when we spent all night making up?
You left the light on and that was all, yeah
Now every morning since, it’s hard just waking up
Don’t want no bacon, no sausage, no ham or scrambled eggs
Baby all I really want to eat right now is that sweet between your…

Sugar
You gotta gimme gimme some of that sugar
I gotta get me get me some of that sugar

Father Aloysius, he’s in the garden
Puts down his hoe, takes off his glove and shakes my hand
The free condolence card is twenty dollars
He lights a candle and says, “We’re all just grains of sand.”
I kiss my mother and my great Aunt Cecilia
What’s that she’s wearing? Oh my God, it’s your perfume
All through the service, sitting next to her, I feel you
Takes all I’ve got, girl, just to stay in that church room
I know that life is short and everybody dies
And that’s why I gotta get myself back to that sweet between your…

Cecilia’s dining room is full of good food
And all these people I haven’t seen in quite some time
Great Uncle Ray was always in a good mood
He liked his Celia and his Perrier with lime
We all sit around talking and remembering
Uncle Ray and all those funny things he said
It’s quite a day and honey, if I have learned anything
It’s that you taste life to the full before you’re dead
So I need to get that taste of life here on my lips
The place it tastes the sweetest is that space between your…

Sugar
You gotta gimme gimme some of that sugar
I gotta get me get me some of that sugar
