Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!

I certainly have enjoyed your site. Probably made me smile more than any surfed. Great work, and I enjoyed it tremendously.

I named my little dog Sugar. The other day, that old tune came back that my Grandma used to hum. "Sugar in the morning, Sugar in the evening, Sugar at Suppertime, Give me....." can't remember the rest. If you know it, I would certainly be appreciative if you could help me.

God bless you and yours, Sincerely, [e-mail]

Sugar in the morning
Sugar in the evening
Sugar at suppertime
Be my little sugar
And love me all the time

Honey in the morning
Honey in the evening
Honey at suppertime
So 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 morning
Sugar in the evening
Sugar at suppertime
Be my little sugar
And love me all the time

Now Sugartime
Is anytime
That you're near
'Cause you're so dear
So don't you roam
Just be my honeycomb
And live
In a heaven of love.

Sugar in the morning
Sugar in the evening
Sugar at suppertime
Be my little sugar
And love me all the time

I thought this one was well-known, so I was surprised I couldn't find it in any of the fakebooks I know of. "Who Wrote That Song" says that "Sugartime" was published in 1958, words and music by Charlie Phillips and Odis Echols. The song was introduced on a recording by Phillips, and the McGuire Sisters charted #1 with their 1958 recording.

Thank you everyone for answering! I don't know how to reach you individually, so "Thank You" for answering the lyrics of Sugar.

May God bless You and Yours!

I don't know about the song, but I'd like a little o' that sugar my very self ...

I do remember the song from my grade school years. I'm sure my sister and I were very precocious, singing it in chirpy two-part harmony.

Wow, that takes me back. It was a big hit in the UK for Alma Cogan.

This song brings back memories -- I remember hearing it on the AM radio in the kitchen as a lad and thinking it epitomized the saccharine unreality of the pop scene. That and Bing singing "Love Forever True". I think this was just about the time Elvis Presley emerged and put the world on its ear, musically speaking.

Compared to this over-refined stuff he sounded like some kind of alien. But because he seemed to throw real passion into his act, it appealed very strongly to the alienated.
