Sugar coated love, you gave me on a plate
i took a bite and then i looked to see what i had ate
i found i had a cinder all covered up in white
that old sugar coated love is something i can't bite
you say you are leaving me for another man
he has all the wealth and charm and not my kind of brand
baby i fell down on my knees a pleading for your love
can't understand what i saw in a sugar coated love
you called me your sugar plum, your baby and your pet
said i was your romeo and you my juliet
i thought you were my angel, my little sugar dove
you sure had me fooled, babe, with that sugar coated love
