Sugar coated love,you gave it me on a plate
I took a bite and then I looked to see what I had ate
I found I had a cinder all covered up in whaite
That old sugar coated love is something I can't bite

You say you are leaving me for another man
He has all the wealth and charm and lot my kind of my friend
Baby I feel down on my knees pleading for your love
Can't understand what I saw in a sugar coated love

* Refrain

You called me your sugar plum,your baby and your pet
Said I was you Romeo and you my Juliet
I thought you were my angel and my little sugar dove
You sure had me tooled,baby,with a sugar coated love

* Refrain
