[00:03.00]
[00:04.18]It's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane
[00:12.94]'Cos everywhere I travel pretty girls call my name
[00:21.37]I give ‘em as squeeze and they shoot me a wink
[00:25.02]I buy their hot-headed husbands a long cool drink
[00:29.56]You'd better come up smelling sweet
[00:31.65]'cos you're a long time stinking
[00:33.98]Then it's a little too late to complain
[00:38.65]It's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane
[00:43.62]
[00:46.70]Now if you catch my eye
[00:48.78]and you find that it runs down your leg
[00:54.71]It's like striking a match pretty hard upon a powder keg
[01:04.42]They'll tell you from the borders to the waters in the Gulf
[01:08.21]And if you take all the sugar you'll end up in the sulphur
[01:12.50]And you'll burn in...
[01:13.70]"Hello, baby I'm a pleased to meet you"
[01:17.21]"I wouldn't do you wrong, honey"
[01:19.79]"I wouldn't cheat you, honey'"
[01:21.82]"When can I see you again?"
[01:26.14]"Wrap you up in cellophane"
[01:30.52]It's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane...
[01:37.18]
[01:39.27]It's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane...
[01:46.23]
[01:47.59]And your eyes fill up with brine
[01:52.04]Because you're drowning in wine
[01:56.34]It's like the last days of Rome
[02:00.85]With the despots and divine
[02:05.20]There's no place like home
[02:07.56]For a little doll from China
[02:10.02]It's a little too late to complain
[02:14.65]It's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane
[02:20.26]
[02:22.89]You can go west to Texas
[02:25.05]Go east to Mississippi
[02:27.00]You can run out of money
[02:29.40]You can run out of pity
[02:31.41]Throw open your purse
[02:33.72]Until you're crying for mercy
[02:35.89]Go to Alabama
[02:38.39]Escape Louisiana
[02:40.41]I'm digging like a miner
[02:42.36]North and South Carolina
[02:44.35]And then if you continue
[02:46.71]You will end up in Virginia
[02:48.81]The woman in Poughkeepsie
[02:50.85]Take their clothes off when they're tipsy
[02:53.13]But in Albany, New York
[02:55.11]They love the filthy way I talk
[02:57.05]As they gargle with the finest champagne
[03:02.14]When they can't get the grape or the grain
[03:33.32][03:06.62]'Cos it's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane
[03:37.76][03:12.09]
[03:41.90]If I could find a piano
[03:43.64]Here in Bloomington, Indiana
[03:45.35]I would play it with my toes
[03:47.65]Until the girls all take their clothes off
[03:50.08]Woman knock upon my door
[03:52.31]In odd and even numbers
[03:54.43]But none of them as wild as I discovered in Columbus
[03:59.15]I gave up married women
[04:01.10]'Cause I heard it was a sin
[04:03.13]But now I'm back in Pittsburgh,
[04:05.21]I might take them up again
[04:07.40]Because they gargle with the finest champagne
[04:12.24]When they can't get the grape or the grain
[04:42.97][04:16.22]'Cos it's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane
[04:47.85][04:22.01]
[04:51.84]Up in Syracuse
[04:52.93]I was once falsely accused
[04:55.50]But I'm not here to hurt you
[04:57.83]I'mhere to steal your
[05:00.57]Down in Bridgeport
[05:02.00]The woman will kill you for sport
[05:04.68]But inWorcester, Massachusetts
[05:06.66]They just love my sauce
[05:09.40]The woman in Poughkeepsie
[05:11.17]Take their clothes off when they're tipsy
[05:13.44]But I hear in Ypsilanti
[05:15.53]They don't wear any panties...
[05:17.71]Once they gargle with the finest champagne
[05:22.78]They hitch up their skirts and exclaim
[05:27.22]It's not very far, Sugar
[05:31.67]It's not very far, Sugar
[05:40.71]It's not very far from Sulphur to Sugarcane
[05:46.11]
