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.

How long can i go on amusing myself

Night after night sitting all alone

While you're in the arms of someone else

Now don't you know that

While you're out looking for sugar,

Somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

While you're out looking for sugar,

Somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

You just buzz, buzz, buzz here and there

Spreadin' your love (everywhere)

You think you're the sugar ole daddy with a candy kiss

You think without your love, i can't exist

Don't think for a minute 'cause i'm true

And don't want nobody here but you

Oh, while you're out looking for sugar,

One day somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

How long can i be faithful?

Truly, i don't know

But if i find myself in the arms of someone else,

Darling, it's all your fault

How long can i go on amusing myself

Night after night sitting all alone

While you're in the arms of someone else

Now don't you know that

While you're out looking for sugar,

Somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

While you're out looking for sugar,

One day somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

Buzz, buzz, buzz here and there

You just spreadin' your love (everywhere) everywhere

Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba

Oooh ooh

Oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Ba ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba

From another woman's door you come sneakin'

Back to my door you come creepin'

You're sneakin' across the floor with your shoes in your hands

How much more do you think i can stand?

While you're out looking for sugar,

Somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

While you're out looking for sugar,

Somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

While you're out looking for sugar,

Somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

While you're out looking for sugar,

Somebody's gonna take your honey and gone

While you're out looking for sugar,

One day somebody's gonna take your honey and gone
