I remember so well that special night
I went out and got lost in the big city lights
At the house of blue lights where the music was loud
I suddenly noticed her face in the crowd

Well she had cat eyes and a mystic smile
I knew that girl was gonna drive me wild
I shivered and shook as she looked at me
But how was I to know about my misery

Sugaree the devil led me to you
Sugaree I love the things that you do
I never had lovin' like this before
You took my keys and then you locked my door
Please give me more

She took a long cigarette and I took my chance
I lit it up and asked her for a dance
Her perfume was so sweet that it rattled my brain
The tattoo on her shoulder drove me insane

It wrote six six six lord in heaven above
With an antichrist woman I just fell in love
I said come on baby let's get out of this place

Her kisses knocked me out as they were fists 'pon my
face

Sugaree the devil led me to you
Sugaree I love the things that you do
I never had lovin' like this before
You took my keys and then you locked my door
Please give me more

From that very time on I was under her command
For givin' all I got I'm allowed to kiss her hand
I'm down for her on my bended knees
I got chains around my wrists I got chains 'round my
feet

But I'm a happy man though she rules my live
And with her long fingernails she cuts me like knife
If I may ever choose 'tween heaven or hell
You can bet I get both in my prison cell

Sugaree the devil led me to you
Sugaree I love the things that you do
I never had lovin' like this before
You took my keys and then you locked my door
Please give me more
