Lyrics

Oh, there's a crazy little shack
Beyond the tracks
And everybody calls it
The Sugar Shack
Well, it's just a coffeehouse
And it's made out of wood
Espresso coffee tastes
Mighty good
That's not the reason why
I've gotta get back
Oh, to that Sugar Shack
Whoa, baby, to that Sugar Shack
Oh, there's this cute little girlie
She's a-working there
A black leotard
And her feet are bare
I'm gonna drink a lot of coffee
Spend a little cash
Make that girl love me
When I put on some trash
You can understand why
I've gotta get back
Oh, to that Sugar Shack
Whoa, baby, to that Sugar Shack
Yeah, honey, to that Sugar Shack
Whoa, yes, to that Sugar Shack
And now that Sugar Shack queen
Is a-married to me, yeah, yeah
We just sit around and dream
Of those old memories
Ah, but one of these days
I'm gonna lay down tracks
In the direction
Of that Sugar Shack
Just me and her, yes
We're gonna go back
Oh, to that Sugar Shack
Whoa, oh, to that Sugar Shack
Yeah, honey to our Sugar Shack
Yeah, yeah, yeah, our Sugar Shack
