PUT THE SUGAR TO BED
AOut on a shDrimp boat I just dropped the net
When the wiEnd she come to blowin' whizzin' bad all to gAet
I look south east and goDlly me what I see
A blEack thundercloud with them fuzzy eyebrows
Come a lookin' direct towards bouAdleaux and me
I tuDrned to boudleaux and mAe I said
Put the suEgar to bed put the suAgar to bed
LDock up the coffee in the cofAfee pot
Put the flour Ein your pillow caAuse it's all we got
Hang the lantern from the ceiling and waDtch your head
Ho boEudleaux put the suAgar to bed boEudleaux put the sAugar to bed
DWell the sAky she get dark and then sDhe turn dark black
I yell sEhe gonna blow one right out of the alAmanac
A big raindrop smacked Dme right on the ear
And I holElered hey boudleaux but the way the wind blow
He just as soon be deaf there wasn't nAo how to hear
I tDry to call to boudleaux but slAid instead
Then Eme and boudleaux put the suAgar to bed
[Solo]

Well the ends of that shrimpin' boat was switchin' arDound
She turned sidEeways and inners and outers and upside down
The waAter come in tryin' to drDown the both of us
The clEoset top open and the shillet went a flyin' me I hit my head and kiAnda
cuss
But mDost of all I frowned when she cAalm that I said
Put the sEugar to bed put the sAugar to bed
ADin't nothin' dry but my raAilroad watch the sEalt got soggy but we stAill can budge
We bAuilt a fire for the coffee and Dwe chicory fed
Cause me and boudleaux pAut the sugar to bed
Me and boEudleaux put the sAugar to bed
