I got some troubles but they won't last
i'm gonna lay right down here in the grass
and pretty soon all my troubles will pass
'cause i'm in shoo-shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo-shoo
shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo sugar town
I never had a dog that liked me some
never had a friend or wanted one
so i just lay back and laugh at the sun
'cause i'm in shoo-shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo-shoo
shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo sugar town
<instrumental interlude>
Yesterday it rained in tennessee
i heard it also rained in tallahassee
but not a drop fell on little old me
'cause i was in shoo-shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo-shoo
shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo sugar town
If i had a million dollars or ten
i'd give to ya, world, and then
you'd go away and let me spend
my life in shoo-shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo-shoo
shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo sugar town
la-la-la-la to end
