Shake Sugaree from The Flood by Wayward Jane

Shake Sugaree

Oh Lordy me
Oh Lordy me
Oh Lordy me
Didn’t I Shake Sugaree
Everything I’ve got is done and pawned

Sing a little song
Won’t take long
Sing it right
Once or twice

CHORUS:
Oh Lordy me
Didn’t I Shake Sugaree
Everything I’ve got is done and pawned
Everything I’ve got is done and pawned

Pawned my watch
Pawned my chain
Pawned everything that was in my name

CHORUS

I pawned my chair
I pawned my bed
Ain’t got nowhere to lay my head

CHORUS

Got a little secret
Ain’t gonna tell
I’m going to heaven in a brown peashell

CHORUS

I pawned my farm
And I pawned my plough
Pawned everything even pawned my old cow

CHORUS

Got a little secret
Ain’t gonna tell
I’m going to heaven and I ain’t going to….

CHORUS

Chew my tobacco
Spit my juice
We’d raise some cane but
It ain't a bit of use
