Lyrics

Sugar, I call my baby my sugar

I never maybe my sugar

That sugar baby of mine

He's special ration

Funny, he never asks for my money

All that I give him is honey

And that he can spend any time

I'd make a million trips to his lips

If I were a bee

Because he's sweeter than chocolate candy to me

He's confectionary

Sugar, I never cheat on my sugar

'Cause I'm too sweet on my sugar

That sugar baby of mine
