Borrowing Sugar
[Verse 1]
I seen you peeking over the hedges
When my man's mowing the yard
Well, he's so damn good-looking
I can't blame you, bless your heart
But he'll go out to fetch the mail
And surprise, surprise, there you'll be
Well, sweetie, pardon me
I don't mean to be un-neighborly
[Chorus]
But don't come borrowing no sugar
From my house, from my house
Got no business in my kitchen
If I ain't around, if I ain't around
Well, I sure feel bad to have to knock
That sweet tooth out of your mouth
Don't come borrowing no sugar
From my house, from my house
[Verse 2]
Well, I ain't too concerned
You see my honey is sweet as pie
I can see you'd like a piеce
But darlin' don't even try
A cup of this, a pinch of that
You'll bе coming back for more
Go take your trashy recipe
On down to the grocery store
[Chorus]
Don't come borrowing no sugar
From my house, from my house
Got no business in my kitchen
If I ain't around, if I ain't around
Well, I sure feel bad to have to knock
That sweet tooth out of your mouth
Don't come borrowing no sugar
From my house, from my house
[Bridge]
Excuse my lack of generosity
If your cupboard's feelin' bare
But my secret sauce, my chocolate cake
And my man, I don't share
[Chorus]
Don't come borrowing no sugar
From my house, from my house
Got no business in my kitchen
If I ain't around, if I ain't around
Well, I sure feel bad to have to knock
That sweet tooth out of your mouth
Don't come borrowing no sugar
From my house, from my house
[Outro]
I sure feel bad to have to knock
That sweet tooth out of your mouth
Don't come borrowing no sugar
From my house, from my house
