One of my favourite Sam Cooke songs. This is my interpretation of the song and I play it with a similar strumming technique to that on Wonderful World also by Sam Cooke. I play it with the capo on the 3rd but that’s just because I like singing it at that pitch. Any suggestions for change are welcomed! Otherwise enjoy. The song isn’t too difficult and an absolute belter to sing along too. SD x Intro: G Em7 X2 CHORUS: Sugar dumpling you’re my baby I love you in every way Sugar dumpling you’re my baby My love grows stronger everyday yeah REPEAT CHORUS Listen while I tell you a story A story about my girl I call her sugar dumpling Because she’s the sweetest thing in this whole world Oh whenever I’m feeling bad Right away she puts me to bed And she hires two nurses one to hold my hand The other one to rub my head CHORUS Oh whenever I tell her "Honey I’m hungry" Now go and fix me something to eat This girl rushes in the kitchen and fixes me a dinner With seven different kinds of meat If I call her up at two o’clock in the morning And say "Come on over if you can" Before I hang up the telephone she’s sitting beside me With a cup of coffee in her hand CHORUS X3
