I look, they cook
They’re like an open book
I always read it in their eyes
I walk, they talk
They talk behind their hands
Oh God, those men got crazy minds
And they say
Sugar boom, boom, when I walk in the room
Feel the tension grow high
Sugar boom, boom, tell me, what can I do?
I need a true-hearted guy
Oh sugar, boom, boom, sugar
That’s what they say
Stalk-eyed, nervous and high
Oh sugar, boom, boom, sugar
Each night and day
There’s someone whispering on the telephone line
Oh sugar, boom, boom, sugar
Don’t ask me why
I’m just an innocent girl
Oh sugar, boom, boom, sugar
Lovely and shy
But all men stop
And stare as if they’d see the seven wonders of the world
It’s nine o’clock
I hear somebody knock
He is calling: Let me in tonight
You see, that’s me
One helpless honey bee
Sometimes I’m feeling sick and tired
But they say
Sugar boom, boom, when I walk in the room
Feel the tension grow high
Sugar boom, boom, tell me, what can I do?
Show me one true-hearted guy
Oh sugar, boom, boom, sugar…
