Jerry Garcia
Sugar Magnolia (Live at the Olympia Theatre, Paris, France, May 4, 1972)
[Verse 1]
Sugar magnolia, blossoms blooming
Head's all empty, and I don't care
Saw my baby down by the river
Knew she'd have to come up soon for air
[Verse 2]
Sweet blossom, come on under the willow
We can have high times if you 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 ticket when I speed
[Verse 3]
She comes skimmin' through rays of violet
She can wade in a drop of dew
She don't come, and I don't follow
Waits backstage while I sing to you
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
Sugar magnolia
Ringing that bluebell
All caught up in sunlight
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 in the summer night moonlight
Crazy in the sunlight, yes, indeed
[Verse 6]
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
I walk around
Wah, yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
Sunshine daydream
Walk you in the tall trees
Going where the wind goes
Blooming like a red rose
Now, come on over sweetly
And ride out singin', I'll walk you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine daydream
Sunshine daydream
Sweet magnolia daydream
Sunshine daydream
Now, come on over, daydream
Sunshine daydream
Wading in a cold stream
Going as the wind goes
Blooming, blooming like a red rose
They're never gonna miss us
Ride out singin', I'll catch you in the morning sunshine
Sunshine daydream
Sunshine daydream, woo-hoo
Sweet magnolia daydream, woo-hoo
Now, come on over, daydream
Coming from a daydream
A sweet magnolia daydream
Come on over, daydream
Sunshine daydream, woo-hoo
Sunshine daydream, woo-hoo
Sweet lovin' daydream
