[Verse 1]
The bus is on the road sweet Georgia fades away
We'll be burning down Louisiana by the very next day
No, sleep will never take me, my mind is stuck on you
Oh you better be laying awake thinking of me too

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll ask one thing (I'll ask one thing)
Not that you'll be true (Not that you'll be true)
The thing I'm asking of you...

[Chorus]
Save me some sugar, this won't take long
I won't promise to stay the night, I won't sing you no song
Save me some sugar, that's all I'll ask of you
You're my old lady, but the road's my lady too

[Post-Chorus]
Ahh yeah...
(*gibberish*: "...daed si lliB")
Alright!

[Verse 2]
Thank you for your sugar, sugar you brought down the night
I was seeing stars on the bedroom walls, full moon in your eyes
This don't mean nothing, we're just passing time
A part of you I'll take with me, but most I'll leave behind
[Pre-Chorus]
One day I'll be back (Yeah I'll be back)
It might not be too soon (Might not be too soon)
Well I pray there's something left of you

[Chorus]
Save me some sugar, this won't take long
I won't promise to stay the night, I won't sing you no song
Save me some sugar, that's all I'll ask of you
You're my old lady, but the road's my lady too

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll ask one thing (I'll ask one thing)
Not that you'll be true (Not that you'll be true)
The thing I'm asking of you...

[Chorus]
Save me some sugar, this won't take long
I won't promise to stay the night, I won't sing you no song
Save me some sugar, that's all I'll ask of you
You're my old lady, but the road's my lady too
But the road's, my lady too
But the road, the road's my lady too
