Sugar Magnolia Lyrics By Grateful Dead

    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

    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

    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

    well she can dance a cajun rhythm jump like a willys in four wheel drive
    she’s a summer love in the spring fall and winter she can make happy any man alive

    sugar magnolia ringing that bluebell caught up in sunlight come on out singing
    i’ll walk you in the sunshine come on honey come along with me

    she’s got everything delightful she’s got everything i need
    a breeze in the pines and the sun and bright moonlight crazy in the sunlight yes indeed

    sometimes when the cuckoo’s crying when the moon is half way down
    sometimes when the night is dying i take me out and i wander around i wander ’round

    sunshine daydream walking in the tall trees going where the wind goes
    blooming like a red rose breathing more freely
    ride our singin’ i’ll walk you in the morning sunshine
    sunshine daydream sunshine daydream walking in the sunshine
