"Gimme Sugar" lyrics

Gimme sugar, I can't stop
Gimme coffee, I'll finish the pot
I used to drink wine all the time
I smoked cigarettes, I'd never rest
Get so sick of it, so sick of this
That I'd start right from the top

Gimme sugar! I'm gonna cry!
Gimme sugar! I can't see the reason why
I can't have more all the time
Morning, noon and night
'Til I'm sick and tired, so sick of trying
That I start right from the top

Gimme sugar! I'll be so sweet
Gimme sugar! Just to get me on my feet!
I used to be good like a nun
I could stop right after one
Good things never last
And I burned out fast
Now I'm right back where I started from

Sugar, sugar or I'll die!
Gimme love like yours — don't care if I go blind
I used to drink wine all the time
Made love 'til I was high
Get so sick and tired, so sick of crying
End up right back where I started from

No, I won't shake it off
It's hard enough to break it off
When something makes you feel so alive
So don't be stingy
Why don't you gimme sweetness?
(You know you love it, too)
Oooooohhhh
La la la la la la la la la la la la la

Gimme sugar — just a taste
Gimme sugar — I just wanna see your face
I used to be sweet on my own
Didn't need a lift back home
I'm so sick and tired, so sick of crying
Now I'm right back where I started from!

Sugar, sugar or I'll die
Gimme love like yours — don't care if I go blind
I'll meet you at one at the park
Near MacDougal and the arch
'Til we're sick and tired, so sick of crying
End up right back where we started from

Sugar, sugar or I'll die
Gimme love like yours — don't care if I go blind
Gimme sugar — I mean it
Gimme sugar — I need it
Gimme sugar — can't stand it
Gimme sugar — gotta have it
