I came downstars and found
The morning paper by my plate
A glass of orange juice
Waitin' there for me.

I looked across the table and
I saw the sweetest face
And she smiled at me
And then I heard to say.

Do you want sugar in your coffee
Honey on your toast?
Or baby would you rather
That I hold you close?

Do you want scrambled eggs and bacon
A bowl of shredded wheat?
Do you want sugar in your coffee
Or loving warm and sweet?


I watched her as she moved and knew
That she was heaven sent
I lived again
Sweet memories in my head.

I never knew real happiness
Or what it really meant
Until my baby
Turned to me and said.

Do you want sugar in your coffee
Honey on your toast?
Or baby would you rather that
I hold you close?

Do you want fingertips to touch you
And kisses on your cheek?
Do you want sugar in your coffee
Or loving warm and sweet?

Do you want sugar in your coffee
Honey on your toast?
Or baby would you rather
That I hold you close?

Do you want scrambled eggs and bacon
A bowl of shredded wheat?
Do you want sugar in your coffee
Or loving warm and sweet?...
