Fake Sugar
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I get so sick and tired
Of feeling sick and tired
When the lonely gets so old
On the wrong side of the road
'Tween the leaves and the velvet snow
I got lost in your eyes
Hand bone, hand bone, where you been?
Around the world, and he's gone again
Sunny days and I'm gettin' paid
It's welcome back the very next day
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Get up and go
Get up and go
(Ooh na-na-na, hey)
(Ooh na-na-na, hey)
(Ooh, ooh)
Let me tell you 'bout this friend of mine
I fell in love for the very first time
In my life
Swing your partner, do-si-do
You're looking good in that sugar coat
'Til it's goodbye-bye-bye
Oh my-my-my
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Get up and go
Get up and go
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Get up and go
Get up and go
Hand bone, hand bone, where you been?
This Yankee diamond's wearing thin
And you can trust that there's nobody
Stop-stoppin' him
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Get up and go
Get up and go
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-ooh-oh-oh
Get up and go
Get up and go
