Ants in the Sugar Bowl (Lyrics)
give me grits for my breakfast
my mama never fixed granola
she always gave a baby bottle when I fussed
of good ole Co-Cola
I’ll take one slice of pecan pie
another little slice of peach
now slide it ‘cross the counter, ma’am
cuz I’m too full to reach
(Oh, I said) ants dance in the sugar bowl
shoo them flies away
give a little bit of that sugar, baby,
make me wanna stay
those Earl Gray-sippin’ Yankees
have still got all their teeth
but it ain’t tea around these parts
if it ain’t cold and sweet
(Oh, I said) ants dance in the sugar bowl
shoo them flies away
give a little bit of that sugar, baby,
make me wanna stay
I don’t need no liquor, oh no
I don’t need no whiskey, please
I just need my sugar daddy-o
as long as he’ll still kiss me
(Oh, I said) ants dance in the sugar bowl
shoo them flies away
give a little bit of that sugar, baby,
make me wanna stay
it ain’t from the South
if it don’t melt in your mouth
give a little bit of that sugar, baby,
make me wanna stay
I said make me wanna stay
I said make me wanna stay!
