Refrain:
Sugar in the mornin', Sugar in the evenin', Sugar at supper time,
Be my little sugar and love me all the time.
Honey in the mornin', Honey in the evenin', Honey at supper time,
You'll by my little honey and love me all the time.
Put your arms around me! And swear by stars above,
You'll be mine forever in a heaven of love.
Sugar in the mornin', Sugar in the evenin', Sugar at supper time,
Be my little sugar and love me all the time.
 
Interlude:
Now Sugar Time is anytime,
That you're near or just appear.
So don't you roam, Just be my honeycomb,
We'll live in a heaven of love.
(Repeat Refrain)
