Let me tell you a story about where I come from Hop in the car and take a ride through the countryside Up on the hill lies your grand daddy, Grady He made a living down in Monument Valley now
Now he lies up on the hill I remember when he used to say
Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me
But I forgot now you've got your own car Girl by your side and you're going too far Aunt Josie said, "My, how big you have grown!" Too big to call you my baby, my own
When I see you, I still wanna cry
Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me
I've got the stories, I've got the memories Some that cry, oh and some that laugh I've got them saved up like your pennies Oh, little baby in your piggy bank
And now time has passed and you're so far away Can't get used to not seeing you each day But there's one place in the back of my mind Where I can go to see you anytime
And for you to me, forever you will be my
Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me
Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me Sugar pie, sugar pie, sit by me
