I got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now
Don't know what I can do
But seek peace with you
Can't get along this a-way
Can't make a living this a-way

I got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now
Got no use for a red rocking chair
Got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now

Got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now
Laid her in the shade
Gave her every dime I made
What more could a poor boy do?
What more could a poor boy do?

I got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now
Don't know what I can do
Said all I can say
Send you to your mama next pay day
Send you to your mama next pay day

Got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now
Who'll rock the cradle?
Who'll sing the song?
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone?
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone?

Got no sugar, baby, now
Go no honey, baby, now
Oh rock the cradle
Oh sing a song
I'll rock the cradle when you're gone
I'll rock the cradle when you're gone

I got no sugar, baby, now
Got no sugar, baby, now
Got no sugar, baby, now
