Got no honey, baby, now

Got no use for a red rocking chair
I'll rock the cradle when you're gone
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone?

Oh rock the cradle
I got no sugar, baby, now
Got no sugar, baby, now
Gave her every dime I made
Got no honey, baby, now

But seek peace with you
Got no sugar, baby, now
Can't make a living this a-way
Who'll sing the song?
Send you to your mama next pay day
Said all I can say

Can't get along this a-way
I got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now
Got no sugar, baby, now
I got no sugar, baby, now
Got no sugar, baby, now
Got no honey, baby, now
Send you to your mama next pay day
I'll rock the cradle when you're gone
Who'll rock the cradle?
Got no sugar, baby, now
Don't know what I can do
Got no honey, baby, now
Oh sing a song
What more could a poor boy do?

Go no honey, baby, now
What more could a poor boy do?
Laid her in the shade
Don't know what I can do
Who'll rock the cradle when I'm gone?
Got no sugar, baby, now
