Lyrics

Sugar man, won't you hurry
'cos i'm tired of these scenes
For a blue coin won't you bring back
All those colors to my dreams.

Silver magic ships you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet mary jane

Sugar man met a false friend
On a lonely dusty road
Lost my heart when i found it
It had turned to dead black coal

Silver magic ships you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet mary jane

Sugar man you're the answer
That makes my questions disappear
Sugar man 'cos i'm weary
Of those double games l hear

Sugar man...sugar man...sugar man...sugar man...sugar man...sugar man...sugar man...

Sugar man, won't you hurry
'cos i'm tired of these scenes
For a blue coin won't you bring back
All those colors to my dreams.

Silver magic ships you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet mary jane

Sugar man met a false friend
On a lonely dusty road
Lost my heart when i found it
It had turned to dead black coal

Silver magic ships you carry
Jumpers, coke, sweet mary jane

Sugar man you're the answer
That makes my questions disappear

  • Really a shame that this guy has not been acknowledged in the States and given the status he clearly deserves. Another indictment of the music industry.

  • Yeah! The only place where Rodriguez really made a name for himself was in South Africa and Australia... It's actually rediculous because his music is f u c k i n' awesome! My favorite song is still Crucify Your Mind oh and Hatesteet Dialogue.

  • Just saw "Searching for Sugar Man," documentary by Malik Bendjelloul at Sundance in Ogden. Even includes music from the unreleased third album.

  • a shame for EEUU, of course....(like always....)

  • awesome, I just reached fifty thousand! no way!

  • i hate that im getting advertisment's even when im not on Vevo.

  • Nas made a bad thing good.

  • sweet

  • This guy is a genius!!

  • Like many people are saying this guy is hugely under-appreciated. This song is beautiful from start to finish. I first heard it a long time back after living off Love's "Forever Changes" on repeat. (Yes, another superb outpouring of good music). For anybody that hasn't heard David Holmes Presents the Free Associations' cover of this - it's worth a listen. True to the original except for the female vocals and a subtle beat here and there for an extra touch.

  • nas sample, large pro killed this
