Sugar Baby

My sugar baby left me,
Don't wanna talk to me no more,
Yeah my sugar baby done gone left me,
Won't say a word to me no more,
I was swimming through her sweet loving,
Now I'm stranded on some distant shore.

We had everything we wanted,
Lord I swear it ain't no lie,
Yeah we had everything that we needed,
It ain't no lie,
Now all that emotion has exploded,
It left me high and dry.

I say my prayers to Jesus,
But he done gone out and he got no answerphone,
I say all my prayers to sweet Jesus,
He got no answerphone,
He say you can try me again tomorrow morning,
Or you can do your thing and leave me alone.

I directed my digital call way down to hell,
Down to the dark below,
Yeah I telephoned all the way down to hell,
Where it's hot and warm and black below,
Well he laughed when he saw me coming,
He said "You're doing fine, just let your ego grow".

Well we're gonna worship market forces,
Just like we don't know right from wrong,
Yeah we're gonna put our head through a brass collar and be lead by market forces,
Can't tell right from wrong,
We're gonna dress ourselves up like slaves now,
Just so we know where we belong.

My sugar baby left me,
Took my joy and pain,
Yeah my sugar baby done gone left me,
Took away all my joy and pain,
Sometimes I feel so very happy,
Other times I want her love again.
