I got a secret
I ain't gonna tell
I'm goin' to heaven in a split pea shell
Oh, Lordy me, didn't we shake sugaree
Everything I have 's down in pawn
I pawned my watch, an' I pawned my chain
Even I'd desert myself... but I got down... so ashamed
Oh, Lordy me, didn't we shake sugaree
Everything I have is down in pawn
I've got a song to sing
Ain't very long
I'm gonna sing it right if it take me all night long
Oh, Lordy me, didn't we shake sugaree
Everything I have is down in pawn
I've got a secret
I ain't gonna tell
I'm goin' to heaven in a split pea shell
Oh, Lordy me, didn't we shake sugaree
Everything I have is down in pawn
