Sugar coated love, you gave 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 white   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 not my kind of brand   Baby I fell down on my knees a pleading for your love   Can't understand what I saw in a sugar coated love      You called me your sugar plum, your baby and your pet   Said I was your Romeo and you my Juliet   I thought you were my angel, my little sugar dove   You sure had me fooled, babe, with that sugar coated love
