Shake Sugaree

Have a little song, won't take long
Sing it right, once or twice
Oh, lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned

Pawn my watch and pawn my chain
Pawn everything that was in my name
Oh, lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned

Pawn by buggy, horse and cart
Pawn everything that was on my lot
Oh, lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned

Pawn my chair and pawn my bed
Ain't got nowhere to lay my head
Oh, lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned

Pawn my tobacco and pawn my pipe
Pawned everything that was in my sight
Oh, lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned

Have a little secret, I ain't gonna tell
I'm going to heaven in a brown pea shell
Oh, lordy me, didn't I shake sugaree?
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned
Everything I got is done and pawned
