Grateful Dead - 04 - Sugar Magnolia (Lyrics) Studio Version

All rights reserved to WMG 1974
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.
Shes got everything delightful, she's got everything I need,
Takes the wheel when Im 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.
Shes a summer love for spring, fall and winter. she can make happy any man alive.
Sugar magnolia, ringing that bluebell, caught up in sunlight, come on out singing
Ill walk you in the sunshine, come on honey, come along with me.
Shes got everything delightful, she's got everything I need,
A breeze in the pines and the sun and bright moonlight, lazing in the sunshine yes
Indeed.
Sometimes when the cuckoos crying, when the moon is half way down,
Sometimes when the night is dying, I take me out and I wander around, I wander
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.

I don't think this band is for me I've listened too like 30 of their songs and I didn't like any. I was high listening to them too.

[@jonpruitt9888]

Nobody cares

[@aquariusdawning]

@@jonpruitt9888 You kind of have to see them live but, then again, the music is actually pretty good sober or high as fuck IMO. It's a whole different thing HAF surrounded by 80,000 other motherckers that are also HAF though.

[@michaelfleming40]

You have the right to your opinion.

[@landonkirby7309]

I'm a Christ-follower after many years of smoking and drinking. Still love this music!! So yeah, high or sober, good stuff!!

[@chriswhittle4564]

Yeah if you don't like this don't listen no one has a gun to your head screaming LISTEN!?
