No Sugar Tonight / New Mother Nature - Burton Cummings

Lonely feeling deep inside

Find a corner where I can hide

Silent footsteps crowding me Sudden darkness but I can see

No sugar tonight in my coffee

No sugar tonight in my tea

No sugar to stand beside me No sugar to run with me Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dow-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow

In the silence of her mind

Quiet movements where I can find

Grabbing for me with her eyes

Now I’m falling from her skies

No sugar tonight in my coffee

No sugar tonight in my tea

No sugar to stand beside me No sugar to run with me Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dow-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow

Jocko says «Yes"and I believe him

When we talk about the things I say

She hasn’t got the faith or the guts to leave him

When they’re standing in each other’s way

You’re tripping back now to places you’ve been to You wonder what you’re gonna find

You know you’ve been wrong but it won’t be long

Before you leave 'em all far behind

'Cause it’s the new mother nature taking over

It’s the new splendid lady come to call

It’s the new mother nature taking over

She’s gettin' us all

She’s gettin' us all

Jocko said «No"when I came back last time

It’s looking like I lost a friend

No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'

And I’m getting pretty near the end

A smoke-filled room in a corner basement

The situation must be right

A bag of goodies and a bottle of wine

We’re gonna get it on right tonight

'Cause it’s the new mother nature taking over

It’s the new splendid lady come to call

It’s the new mother nature taking over

She’s gettin' us all

She’s gettin' us all

(Lonely feeling) Jocko says «Yes"and I believe him

(Deep inside) When we talk about the things I say

(Find a corner) She hasn’t got the faith or the guts to leave him

(Where I can hide) When they’re standing in each other’s way

(Silent footsteps) You’re tripping back now to places you’ve been to

(Crowding me) You wonder what you’re gonna find

(Sudden darkness) You know you’ve been wrong and it won’t be long

(But I can see) Before you leave 'em all far behind

'Cause it’s the new mother nature taking over

It’s the new splendid lady come to call

It’s the new mother nature taking over

She’s gettin' us all

She’s gettin' us all

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dow-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dow-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow

Dat’n-doo-dow dow
