[Verse 1]

I'm hurting baby, I'm broken down

I need your loving, loving I need it now

When I'm without you, I'm something weak

You got me begging, begging I'm on my knees

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I need you

Like the sky needs blue

One of three me too for sure

And when I feel like I lost my way

Baby, just one taste of cure

[Chorus]

Sugar, yes please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

I'm right here, 'cause I need

Little love, a little sympathy

Baby, show me good loving, make me alright

Need a little sweetness in my life

Sugar, yes please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

[Verse 2]

My broken pieces, you pick them up

Don't leave me hanging, hanging

Come give me some

When I'm without you, there ain't no sun

There's only one thing, one thing I'm thinking of

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause I need you

Like the sky needs blue

[?] free me too for sure

When I feel like I lost my way

Baby, just one taste of cure

[Chorus]

Your sugar, yes please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

I'm right here, 'cause I need

Little love, a little sympathy

Baby, show me good loving, make me alright

Need a little sweetness in my life

Your sugar, yes please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

[Bridge]

I want that red velvet

I want that sugar sweet

Don't let nobody touch it unless that somebody's me

You say you got a man, I gotta find the way

You 'bout to make me go back to my Carolina days

Hair lined up, stars is too

First date, drove that Impala 2

I still got that Impala, too

Button-up but with the collar, too, woo

Now you know that I'm serious

And when you goin', I'm furious

And you ain't on that shy shit

No makeup on, that's my sugar

[Chorus]

Sugar, yes please

Won't you come and put it down on me?

I'm right here, 'cause I need

Little love, a little sympathy

Show me good loving, make me alright

Need a little sweetness in my life

Your sugar, yes please

Won't you come and put it down on me?
