I got a letter from my baby She said she's comin' home today I got a letter from my baby She said she's comin' home today Oh well, my baby wasn't lyin' She was comin' home to stay
[Chorus] Sugaree, sugaree Sugaree, sugaree Sugaree, sugaree Don't you know I love you so
I got a pencil and a paper And I sat right down to write I got a pencil and a paper And I sat right down to write I said I miss you in the daytime But I miss you more at night
[Chorus]
Oh well, I met her at the station She had her baggage in her hand Oh well, I met her at the station She had her baggage in her hand I said I love you pretty baby I'll make you happy if I can
