Cooke, Sam - Sugar Dumpling Lyrics






Sugar dumpling, you're my baby
I love you in every way
sugar dumpling, you're my baby
my love grows stronger every day

yeah
sugar dumpling, you're my baby
I love you in every way
sugar dumpling, you're my baby
my love grows stronger every day

listen how I tell you a story
a story about my girl
and I call hear Sugar dumpling
because she's the sweetest things in this world

whenever I'm feeling bad
by the way she puts me to bad
and she hides two mercys
one to hold my hand
the other one to rub my hand

Sugar dumpling, you're my baby
I love you in every way
sugar dumpling, you're my baby
my love grows stronger every day

whenever I tell her honey I'm hungry
now go and fix me something to eat
the girl rushes in the kitchen
and fixes me a dinner
with seven different kinds of meat
If I call her up at two o'clock in the morning
and come over if you can
before I hang up to telephone
she's sitting beside me
with a cup of coffee in her hand

Sugar dumpling, you're my baby
I love you in every way
sugar dumpling, you're my baby
my love grows stronger every day

Sugar dumpling, I love you in every way
Sugar dumpling, my love grows stronger every day

  28. j.... w....

    I love this song

  29. s.... ....

    great song from a great singer. all ppl divulging in his death. let the man rip

  30. R.... K....

    No mystery about his murder, he was drunk in a motel with a prostitute, the hotel owner shot him when he ran into the office looking for the prostitute who had ran out of the room because supposedly he was abusing her. If you google search there is a pic of his lying naked except for a white sport court, its very sad. Heartbreaking sucha talent died in that fashion.

    R.... K....

    Bro no, she stole from Sam, she ran off with all of his money and jeans and he went after angry but he didn't abuse her she lied about all of that, though he shouldn't have been a dumbass in a room with a prostitute and getting played like any other person, sad but shouldn't have played himself.

    R.... K....

    I don't believe that theory. I think the mob killed him. He was so beat up, his hands were crushed, ribs broke, and Etta James said his head was almost severed from his neck. He wouldn't play ball with the mob. They wanted a certain amount of his takings, this is quite common in the entrainment business.

  31. j.... l....

    It is sadder that his murder is not truly resolved The same for Bobby Fuller.

  32. T.... ....

    Good song, but that kind of relationship so terrible! XP

  33. g.... ....

    good work janet! What a horrible shame about his murder. We are a poorer society because of it. Luckily his wonderful music remains for us on YouTube.

  34. D.... Z....

    From now on whenever someone makes a sandwich I will insist it has seven different kinds of meat

  35. J.... S....
