Sugar Daddy Lyrics

well i need a sugar daddy
he could be my friend
and if i needed money
i know he would lend me a hand

CHORUS:
but when it comes to loving
he'd better leave me alone
'cause i've got you baby
and you give me all the love i need
yes, you give me all the love i need

and when i get a little hungry
he could give me all i could eat
and if i needed whiskey
he could serve it to me neat

(repeat chorus)

all that i want is someone to take care of me
i'm not asking for love
just a little sympathy

and he could pick me up
in a big, fancy car
then i could pretend
i was a big movie star

(repeat chorus)

all that i want is someone to take care of me
i'm not asking for love
just a little sympathy

i'm not asking for love

i'm not asking for love

McVie and Nicks would go running to Mick as a shoulder to cry on which morphed into him sharing their beds despite being married (with young kids). From what i've read/gathered he was a bit of a sugar daddy.

They even describe all of this in the song on Rumours "Oh Daddy" where they simultaneously proclaim admiration & love for...

These lyrics are so out of character for Christine...

I'm thinking she was painting a picture of someone else, not her.
