Sugar pie honeybunch, you know that I love you,

        Dm                          F             GGGG

I can't help myself, I love you and nobody else.

C                                    G

In and out my life, you come and you go,

                     Dm                                F               GGGG

Leaving... just your picture behind, and I kissed it a thousand times

 

C

When you snap your fingers, or wink your eye,

I come a running to you, I'm tied to your apron sring.

Sugar pie, honey bunch, I'm weaker than a man should be.

I can't help myself, I'm a fool in love you see.

      C                                                                G

Wanna tell you I don't love you, tell you that we're through, and I’ve tried.

                Dm                                 F          GGGG

But everytime I see your face, I get up all choked up inside.

 

C

When I call your name, girl it starts the flame,      (Intro instrumental goes

                                                           under this x4)

burning in my heart, tearin' it all apart,

 

No matter how I try, my love I cannot hide, ooh!

Sugar pie, honeybunch, I'll do anything you ask me to.

I can't help myself, I want you and nobody else.

 

C                                      G

Sugar pie, honeybunch, you know that I love you.
