My Little Lump Of Sugar Down In Dixie

Sugar! Sugar! Every body’s cryin’
‘Cause it’s mighty scarce up here
Buy it! Try it! Just go out to buy it
And you’ll find it’s mighty dear
But I don’t care
I’m going where
I’ve got enough to last a year

There’s a lump of sugar down in dixie and it’s all my own
He’s the sweetest little bunch of sweetness I have ever known
Every glance that he gives me puts sugar in my tea
His kisses are like honey yummy yummy yummy

Sweeter than the honey to the bee there’s a choo – choo leavin’
Here this evenin’ bound for carolin’ and its goin’ to take me
To that little lolly pop of mine
He’s the one that mister hoover ought to meet
Puts his finger in the pie and make it sweet
My little lump of sugar down in dixie mine all mine

Tuitti fruitti don’t compare with cutie waitin’ cross the dixon line
He says ‘ida, ida may be sweet as cider but I am sweet as wine’
Nothin’ could be sweeter than he
Believe me folks
I’m glad he’s mine

There’s a lump of sugar down in dixie and it’s all my own
He’s the sweetest little bunch of sweetness I have ever known
Every glance that he gives me puts sugar in my tea
His kisses are like honey yummy yummy yummy

Sweeter than the honey to the bee there’s a choo – choo leavin’
Here this evenin’ bound for carolin’ and its goin’ to take me
To that little lolly pop of mine
Everybody calls him candy kid down home
Say! He even combs his hair with honey comb
My little lump of sugar down in dixie mine all mine
