Shake The Sugar Tree

Shake The Sugar Tree - Pam Tillis

Written by：Chapin Hart/Hartford

Love you're getting lazy

You're forgetting to give me

Sweet sugar

Words that I wanna hear

You been neglecting me

You know jealousy it is bitter as a green spring berry

And just like fruit from a fickle vine

You turn sweet in the nick time

Love you only come alive

When you're losing me

And it's a childish game

I gotta shake you up just to wake you up

To make you love me

I'll shake the sugar tree

Till I feel your love falling all around me

You gotta tend to what you planted

And if you take my love for granted baby

I'll shake the sugar tree

Another night and you're sleeping

I'm awake and I'm dreaming

Oh honey 'bout the way that it used to be

A little time's gone by

Do you think that I'm content

Cooking and the paying the rent

No I wanna know if your love's all spent

I'll shake the sugar tree

Till I feel your love falling all around me

You gotta tend to what you planted

And if you take my love for granted baby

I'll shake the sugar tree

I've got to raise some commotion

Before you show me some real emotion

I'll shake the sugar tree

Till I feel your love falling all around me

You gotta tend to what you planted

And if you take my love for granted baby

I'll shake the sugar tree

Shake the sugar tree
