Lyrics

  1. I know a thing or two
    And I’m telling you
    I’ve got a wonderful gal
    She’s got the cutest smile
    A million dollar style
    She’s such a wonderful pal
    I just feel so happy ’cause I love her so
    When she is by my side
    I’m so filled with pride
    I want the whole world to know

Chorus
When my sugar walks down the street
All the little birdies go tweet, tweet, tweet
And in the evening when the sun goes down
It’s never dark when she’s around
She’s so affectionate and I’ll say this
That when she kisses me I sure stay kissed
When my sugar walks down the street
The little birdies go tweet, tweet, tweet

  1. I like my coffee sweet
    Everything I eat must have some sugar on top
    I’m telling you the truth
    I’ve got the sweetest tooth
    I love a sweet lollipop
    Tell me what is sweeter than a sweet, sweet kiss
    From someone who can be
    Oh, so sweet to me
    I want you all to know this
