I Lost My Sugar In Salt Lake City

(альбом: Blues Cross Country - 1962)

I lost my sugar in Salt Lake City
Oh, why did I go there?
I should have stayed down in New Orleans
And never gone nowhere

A girl with sweet talk from Kansas City
Her words were sweet like wine
She bought him diamonds and limousines
And stole that man of mine

When night comes creeping
For me there's no sleeping
What he sows, he'll be reaping
For he done me wrong

I lost my sugar in Salt Lake City
And when I heard the news
It left me deep in my solitude
With the Salt Lake City blues

When night comes creeping
For me there's no sleeping
What he sows, he'll be reaping
For he done me wrong

I cried my heart out in Salt Lake City
The day I heard the news
He left me deep in my solitude
With the salty
Salt Lake City blues
