[Chorus]
Sugar, Sugar
How I wanna be your main boy
Sugar, Sugar
How I wanna be your play toy

[Verse 1]
Got no time for every woman
Thinking that she's looking fine
Got no pockets full of money, no, no, no
A fox would just be wasting her time

[Pre-Chorus]
All I got is good, good lovin'
Yeah, good loving is hard to find, hey

[Chorus]
Sugar, Sugar
How I wanna be your main boy
Sugar, Sugar
How I wanna be your play toy

[Post-Chorus]
Get it baby
Ehh
Mmm hmm yeah

[Verse 2]
Got no need for fancy places
Got no need for cannon and wine, ah
Got no need to move to the city, no, no, no
Got no need to walk the line

[Pre-Chorus]
All I need is good home cooking
And some sugar after supper time, hey

[Chorus]
Sugar, Sugar
How I wanna be your main boy
Sugar, Sugar
How I wanna be your play toy

[Outro]
Ooh Sugar
Ooh Sugar
Ooohhhooohhhooohhh Sugar
Ooh Sugar
Ooh Sugar
Ooh, oh yeah yeah, baby
Ooh Sugar, oh yeah
Ooh Sugar, oh yeah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Sugar
Ooh Sugar, oh yeah
Ooh Sugar, oh yeah
Ooh ooh ooh ooh Sugar
Ooh Sugar, oh yeah...

Stevie Wonder

Despite losing his sight at a young age, Stevie Wonder went on to become one of the most celebrated soul songwriters of the late 20th century. His songs manage to both innovate and catch the ears of listeners of all dispositions, whilst also being big chart hits.

Incredibly influential amongst musical circles, his voice rendered modern British soul-songwriter James Morrison close to tears the first time he heard it.
