About

While not an exact cover, this song borrows heavily from Bessie Smith’s Need A Little Sugar In My Bowl. The slight switch from “need” to “want” changes the song from one of an uncontrollable desire to that of an empowered choice.

I Want a Little Sugar in My Bowl Lyrics

I want a little sugar in my bowl
I want a little sweetness down in my soul
I could stand some lovin', oh so bad
I feel so funny, I feel so sad

I want a little steam on my clothes
Maybe I can fix things up so they'll go
What's the matter, daddy? Come on, save my soul
I need some sugar in my bowl, I ain't foolin'
I want some sugar in my bowl

You been actin' different, I've been told
Soothe me, I want some sugar in my bowl

I want some steam on my clothes
Maybe I can fix things up so they'll go
What's the matter, daddy? Come on, save my soul
I want some sugar in my bowl, I ain't foolin'
I want some sugar in my bowl
