INTRO

"Hello Central, give me 289, I wants to talk to that little angel of mine."
"Hello, Sugar Bunch, is this you? Called you to find out what you're gonna do.
You left your daddy early in the Fall. Don't come back now, don't you come back at all.
I love you, sugar, I swear that's true. Don't want your papa, then the hell with you,
REFRAIN: And don't forget it. Don't forget it.
Please answer, little angel, tell me what you're going to do."

"I hate to tell it on the telephone, done got tired of lingerin' all alone.
Days are lonesome and the nights get long, ain't had my right lovin' since you been gone,
REFRAIN: Don't forget it. Don't forget it.
Please answer, hot mama, tell me what you're going to do."

"Sweet and slow, shake me, sugar mama 'til I don't wanta go
REFRAIN: And don't forget it. Don't forget it.
Please answer, hot mama, tell me what you're going to do."

SOLO (Spoken: Play it)

"You got to put your arms around me like a circle 'round the sun. Stop and think fast--I want my lovin' done.
Take time, sugar, to ease my misery. Get right, talk, baby talk to me,
REFRAIN: Don't forget it. Don't forget it.
Please answer, hot mama, tell me what you're going to do."

You know, this is about the last thing I got to say, hang up the receiver and be on your way.
Hurry home, woman, and love me with a thrill. If you don't, some other woman will.
REFRAIN: And don't forget it. Don't forget it.
Please answer, pretty mama, tell me what you're gong to do."
