                 Put The Sugar To Bed


Capo:no capo
 
A          D
Out on a shrimp boat I just dropped the net
           E                                           A
When the wind she come to blowin' whizzin' bad all to get
                        D
I look south east and golly me what I see
    E
A black thundercloud with them fuzzy eyebrows
                                 A
Come a lookin' direct towards boudleaux and me
    D                      A
I turned to boudleaux and me I said
          E                    A
Put the sugar to bed put the sugar to bed
 D                           A
Lock up the coffee in the coffee pot
              E                A
Put the flour in your pillow cause it's all we got
                                        D
Hang the lantern from the ceiling and watch your head
     E                 A            E                A
Ho boudleaux put the sugar to bed boudleaux put the sugar to bed
D         A                         D
Well the sky she get dark and then she turn dark black
        E                                    A
I yell she gonna blow one right out of the almanac
                       D
A big raindrop smacked me right on the ear
         E
And I hollered hey boudleaux but the way the wind blow
                                      A
He just as soon be deaf there wasn't no how to hear
   D                             A
I try to call to boudleaux but slid instead
     E                          A
Then me and boudleaux put the sugar to bed
 
[Solo]
D   A   E   A   D   A
 
                                                     D
Well the ends of that shrimpin' boat was switchin' around
              E
She turned sideways and inners and outers and upside down
      A                       D
The water come in tryin' to drown the both of us
      E                                                                  A
The closet top open and the shillet went a flyin' me I hit my head and kinda 
cuss
     D                              A
But most of all I frowned when she calm that I said
 
         E                    A
Put the sugar to bed put the sugar to bed
 D                         A                 E                      A
Ain't nothin' dry but my railroad watch the salt got soggy but we still can budge
    A                              D
We built a fire for the coffee and we chicory fed
                        A
Cause me and boudleaux put the sugar to bed
         E                A
Me and boudleaux put the sugar to bed
