Sugar Blues is a song that became popular by Clyde McCoy featuring the sound of the growling wah-wah mute. Although McCoy's version was strictly instrumental, there are lyrics.


"I got those sugar blues,

Everybody's singing those sugar blues,

The whole town is ringing;

My lovin' mama, sweet as she can be,

But the doggone gal turned sour on me!


I'm so unhappy, I feel so bad,

I could lay me down and die;

You can say what you choose,

But I'm all confused;

I've got those sweet, sweet sugar blues,

More sugar,

I got those sweet, sweet sugar blues!
