Lyrics

[Verse 1] When they come to take you down When they bring that wagon 'round When they come to call on you And drag your poor body down [Pre-Chorus] Just one thing I ask of you, it's just one thing for me Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree [Chorus] Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] You thought you was the cool fool Never could do no wrong You had everything sewn up tight How come you lay awake all night long? [Pre-Chorus] Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree [Chorus] Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Know in spite of all you gained Still have to stand out in the pouring rain One last voice is calling you And I guess it's time you go [Pre-Chorus] Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree [Chorus] Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree [Chorus] Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me Shake it, shake it, Sugaree Just don't tell them you know me
