When I take my sugar to tea,
All the boys are jealous of me,
'Cause I never take her where the gang goes,
When I take my sugar to tea.
I'm a rowdy dowdy, that's me,
She's a high hat mama, that's she,
So I never take her where the gang goes,
When I take my sugar to tea.
Every Sunday afternoon, we forget about our cares,
Rubbing elbows at the Ritz, with those millionaires.
When I take my sugar to tea,
I'm as ritzy as I can be,
'Cause I never take her where the gang goes,
When I take my sugar to tea.
