Sugar Magnolia Live at Boston Music Hall Boston MA November 30 1973 by The Grateful Dead Lyrics
[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 tickets when I speed
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
She comes skimmin' through rays of violet
Shе can wade in a drop of dew
She don't comе, 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 sunshine
Now 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
[Verse 3]
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 'round
Walk around
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Sunshine daydream, walk you in the tall trees
Going where the wind goes
Blooming like a red rose
Come on over sweetly
Ride out singin'; I'll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine daydream, sunshine daydream
Well, come on, come on over, daydream
Sunshine daydream
Well, coming, coming from a daydream
Sunshine daydream
Well, now wading in a cold stream
Crawl on out your window
Go anywhere the wind blows
They're never gonna miss us
Ride out, wait, I'll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine daydream, sunshine daydream, I wanna woo-hoo
Sunshine daydream, I wanna woo-hoo
Sunshine daydream, I wanna woo-hoo
Sunshine daydream, I wanna woo-hoo
Sunshine daydream
Well, come on over, daydream
Sunshine daydream
A-coming, coming from a sweet dream
Sunshine daydream, I wanna hey,-ow
Sunshine daydream, I wanna hey-ow
Sunshine daydream, hey, ow
Sunshine daydream, I wanna woo-hoo
Sunshine daydream, woo-hoo
Sunshine daydream, I wanna hey, hey
Sunshine daydream, I wanna hey-ow
Sunshine daydream, hey-ow
Hey-ow, hey-ow, hey-ow
Thank you all and good night
