Pam Tillis - Shake The Sugar Tree lyrics

Album: Greatest Hits (1997)

Love, you are getting lazy.
You are forgetting to give me
sweet sugar,
words that I want to hear.
You been neglecting me,
you know jealousy it´s bitter as a green spring berry.
And just like fruit from a fickle vine,
you turn sweet in the nick o´ time.
Love, you only come alive
when you are losing me.
And it is a childish game,
I´ve got to shake you up just to wake you up
to make you love me.

(chorus)
I will shake the sugar tree,
´til I feel your love falling all around me.
You´ve got to tend to what you planted,
and if you take my love for granted, baby,
I will shake the sugar tree.

Another night & you are sleeping,
I am awake & I am dreaming.
Oh honey, ´bout the way that it used to be.
A little time´s gone by,
now do you think that I am content with the cooking
and the payin´ the rent? No I want to know if your love is all spent.

(repeat chorus)

I have got to raise some commotion,
before you show me some real emotion.

(repeat chorus & fade)
