Shake Sugaree Lyrics
Got a little secret
I ain't gonna tell
I'm going to heaven
In a ground pea shell
Oh lordie me
Didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is down in pawn
Pawned my watch
Pawned my chain
Pawned everything that was in my name
Oh lordie me
Didn't I shake sugaree
I'm going sailing
In a wooden shoe
Looking for a star
I can tell my troubles do
Oh lordie me
Didn't I shake sugaree
I pawned my horse
Pawned my plow
Pawned everything
Even my old milk cow
Got a little secret
I ain't gonna tell
I'm going to heaven
In a ground pea shell
Oh lordie me
Didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is down in pawn
Everything I got is down in pawn
I ain't gonna tell
I'm going to heaven
In a ground pea shell
Oh lordie me
Didn't I shake sugaree
Pawned my watch
Pawned my chain
Pawned everything that was in my name
Didn't I shake sugaree
In a wooden shoe
Looking for a star
I can tell my troubles do
Didn't I shake sugaree
Pawned my plow
Pawned everything
Even my old milk cow
I ain't gonna tell
I'm going to heaven
In a ground pea shell
Didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is down in pawn
Everything I got is down in pawn
