You're shiftless and you're lazy
Just like the hound dog, Daisy
I had when grandma raised me
Honey chile

Poor Granny gGot too old to scorn me
Dear old auntie warned me
You sure was no good for me
Honey chile

But your kiss is sweeter than the cake
That grandma used to make
Oh them sweet little things about ya
Sure enough takes the cake

You ain't gonna 'mount to nothing
'Cause you ain't gonna work for nothing
Without you, I'm good for nothing
Honey chile

Honey chile
Sure 'bout to drive me wild
And I love you so 
Can't let go now honey chile

Oh sugar chile
I'd walk a country mile
Just to be with you
And to stay with you, now honey chile

I try to act like a lady
But you've been courtin' Sadie
Your reputation's shady
Honey chile

Hey you even took out Sally
Who lives across the alley
Oh I've been keeping tally
Honey chile

You're like the grapes upon the vine
At winning pretty wine
'Cause like that home made wine so sweet
You sure enough drove me out of my mind now

You ain't nothing but a playboy
Using me for a play toy
You're ruining my pride and joy
Now honey chile

Honey chile
Sure 'bout to drive me wild
And I love you so, can't let go
Now honey chile

Oh sugar chile
I'd walk a country mile 
Just to be with you and to stay with you
Now honey chile

One day I'm gonna get stronger
And I won't need you no longer
This feeling will be a goner
Honey chile

Hey now I can't take disgracin'
That ain't the way granny raised me
You're gonna just hurt like crazy 
Honey chile

Sugar chile
I'd walk a country mile
Just to be with you and to stay with you
Honey chile

Hey honey chile
Sure 'bout to drive me wild
And I love you so, can't let go
Now honey chile

Oh sugar chile.....
