Shake the Sugar Tree

Til I feel your love fallin' all around me
I've got to shake you up just to wake you up to make you love me
You've got to tend to what you planted
Sweet sugar words that I wanna hear

And just like fruit from a fickle vine
Til I feel your love fallin' all around me
And it's a childish game
You turn sweet in the nick of time
You've got to tend to what you planted
And little time's gone by

Til I feel your love fallin' all around me
And if you take my love for granted baby
Before you show me some real emotion
No I wanna know if your love's all spent
Love you only come alive when you're losin' me
You've been neglectin' me
You've got to tend to what you planted
I'll shake, shake, shake the sugar tree

I'm awake and I'm dreamin'
You know jealously, it is a bitter as a green spring berry
Another night and you're sleepin'
You know I'm gonna shake the sugar tree
Til I feel your love fallin' all around me
You've got to tend to what you planted
I'll shake the sugar tree

Oh honey 'bout the way that it used to be
I'll shake the sugar tree
Do you think that I'm content with the cookin' and the payin' of rent
And if you take my love for granted baby
I'll shake the sugar tree
I'll shake the sugar tree

And if you take my love for granted baby

I'll shake the sugar tree
And if you take my love for granted baby
I've got to raise some commotion
