Sugar Love Poem by Buddy Bee Anthony

Sugar Love



I've looked up and down the alley
I have searched for you in school
I've slinked around them backstreets
drivin' truck 'n' eatin' gruel.
Can't you see, I'm not a Devil
I ain't hurtin' anyone
Though I can't say why
the love I've taken's
been stolen on the run.
I will search now and forever
even write your name in blood.
I'm just doin' what I gotta do
to find you
Sugar Love.
What if love's around the corner
lyin' just around the bend
I'll keep waitin' on tomorrow
when today won't ever end
Could it be you're just a woman/child
givin' misery a shove?
I'm still doin'
what I gotta do
to find you
Sugar Love.
I've tried followin' your heartbeat
I've been searchin' like a fool
I've done sniffed around them barrooms
playin' cards 'n' shootin' pool
If love's only for the lucky
then watch me push and shove
Until that day
this good ole boy
shall find you
Sugar Love...
