when i take my sugar to tea
I'm just a little "Jackie Horner" since I met my sugar cane. That gang of mine has been revealin' that they're feelin' sore. I left the lamp light on the corner, for the moon in lover's lane. I'm doing things I never did before.   When I take my sugar to tea, all the boys are jealous of me, 'cause I never take her where the gang goes,  When I take my sugar to tea.   I'm a rowdy dowdy, that's me,  She's a high hat baby, that's she,  So I never take her where the gang goes,  When I take my sugar to tea.  Ev'ry Sunday afternoon, we forget about our cares, rubbing elbows at the Ritz, with those millionaires.   When I take my sugar to tea,  I'm as Ritzy as can be,  'cause I never take her where the gang goes,  When I take my sugar to tea.
