Shake Sugaree

I have a little song and it won't take long
And I'll sing it right once or twice-
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
Pawned my chair and I pawned my bed
And ain't got no place to lay my head
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
Grow my tobacco and I spit my juice-
Well I would raise cain, but it ain't a bit of use
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
Pawned my tobacco and I pawned my pipe
Pawned everything that was in my sight
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
I'm going sailing in a wooden shoe
Looking foir a star I could tell my troubles to
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
First star to the right and it's straight on 'til morn
I never saw such such night since I was born
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
Have a little secret; I ain't going to tell
I'm going to heaven in a brown pea shell
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
Pawned my horse and I pawned my plow
Pawned everything, even pawned my old milk cow
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
Have a little secret and I ain't going to teel
I'm going to heaven and I'm not going to ....
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn
Everything I got
Haver a little song and it won't take long
I'll sing it right, sing it all night long
Oh Lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree
Everything I got is in the pawn. Everything I got
