The Grateful Dead
Sugar Magnolia (Live at Lyceum, London, England, May 24, 1972)
[Verse 1]
Sugar magnolia, blossoms blooming
Heads all empty, and I don't care
Saw my baby down by the river
Knew she'd have to come up soon for air

Sweet blossom come on, under the willow
We can have high times if you'll abide
We can discover the wonders of nature
Rolling in the rushes down by the riverside

[Chorus]
She's got everything delightful
She's got everything I need
Takes the wheel when I'm seeing double
Pays my ticket when I speed

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
She comes skimmin' through rays of violet
She can wade in a drop of dew
She don't come, and I don't follow
Waits backstage while I sing to you

She can dance a Cajun rhythm
Jump like a Willys in four-wheel drive
She's my summer love in the spring, fall, and winter
She can make happy any man alive
Sugar magnolia, ringing that bluebell
While caught up in sunlight
Come on out singing, I'll walk you in the sunshine
Come on, honey, come along with me

[Chorus]
She's got everything delightful
She's got everything I need
A breeze in the pines and the sun and bright moonlight
Lazing in the sunlight? Yes, indeed

[Bridge]
Sometimes when the cuckoo's crying
When the moon is halfway down
Sometimes when the night is dying
I take me out, and I wander around
Walk around

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Sunshine daydream
Meet you in the tall trees
Going where the wind goes, yeah
Blooming like a red rose
Come on over sweetly
Ride out, ride out singin'; I'll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine daydream, come on, sunshine daydream
Meet you in the tall trees
Going where the wind goes, yeah
Blooming, hey, blooming like a red rose
Come on over sweetly
And ride out singin'; I'll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine daydream, sunshine daydream
Ow, sweet lovin' daydream
Sunshine daydream, a sweet lovin' daydream
Sunshine daydream, hey, ow
Sunshine daydream, hey, ow
Sunshine daydream, hey, ow
Sweet lovin' daydream, sweet, ow
Sweet lovin' daydream, woo-hoo
My sunshine daydream
Danke schön
