Lyrics I Lost My Sugar in Salt Lake City - George Shearing , Peggy Lee

I lost my sugar in Salt Lake City
Oh, why did I go there
I should have stayed down in New Orleans
And never gone nowhere

A girl with sweet talk from Kansas City
Her words were sweet like wine
She bought him diamonds and limousines
She stole that man o' mine

When night comes a-creepin'
For me there's no sleeping
What she sews, she'll be reapin'
'Cause she done me wrong

I cried my heart out in Salt Lake City
The day I heard the news
He left me deep in my solitude
With a Salt Lake City blues

With a Salt Lake City blues
