Sugaree (Live)

Sugaree (Live at Assembly Center,

Baton Rouge, October 16, 1977) - Grateful Dead

When they come to take you down

When they bring that wagon around

When they come to call on you

and drag your poor body down

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name,

my darling Sugaree

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

You thought you was the cool fool

and never could do no wrong

You had everything sewed up tight.

How come you lay awake all night long

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Well in spite of all you gained you

still had to stand out in the pouring rain

One last voice is calling you

and I guess it's time you go

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Well shake it up now Sugaree,

I'll meet you at the jubilee

And if that jubilee fall through,

maybe I'll meet you on the run

Just one thing I ask of you, just one thing for me

Please forget you knew my name, my darling Sugaree

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me

Shake it, shake it sugaree,

just don't tell them that you know me
