Now just tell me sugar mama, where in the world did you get your sugar from
Now just tell me sugar mama, where in the world did you get your sugar from
Way down in Louisiana, you come off of your father's sugar farm

I like my coffee in the mornin', woman I'm crazy about my tea at night
I like my coffee in the mornin', crazy about my tea at night
If I don't get my sugar three times a day, oh darlin' I don't feel right

You know they're braggin' about your good sugar, you know they're braggin' all over town
You know they're braggin' about your sugar babe, you know they're braggin' all over town
(Spoken: what they sayin' about you)
They say that's granulated sugar, best ever to come off the farm
