Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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 up in my bowl, I ain't foolin'
I want some sugar in my bowl
[Verse 3]
You been actin' different, I've been told
Soothe me, I want some sugar in my bowl
[Verse 4]
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
