Sugar Coated Love Lyrics - Bill Monroe

Sugar coated love, you gave me on a plate 

I took a bite and then I looked to see what I had ate 

I found I had a cinder all covered up in white 

That old sugar coated love is something I can't bite 

You say you are leaving me for another man 

He has all the wealth and charm and not my kind of brand 

Baby I fell down on my knees a pleading for your love 

Can't understand what I saw in a sugar coated love 

You called me your sugar plum, your baby and your pet 

Said I was your Romeo and you my Juliet 

I thought you were my angel, my little sugar dove 

You sure had me fooled, babe, with that sugar coated love
