Bill Monroe sings Sugar Coated Love.
"Sugar coated love
You gave me on a plate
I took a bite and then
I looked to see what I had ate
I found I had a cinder
All covered up in white
That old sugar coated love
Is something I can't bite
You say you are leaving me
for another man
He has all the wealth and charm
and not my kind of brand
Baby I fell down on my knees
And pleading for your love
Can't understand what I saw
In a sugar coated love
Sugar coated love
You gave me on a plate
I took a bite and then
I looked to see what I had ate
I found I had a cinder
All covered up in white
That old sugar coated love
Is something I can't bite
You called me your sugar plum
Your baby and your pet
Said I was your Romeo
And you my Juliet
I thought you were my angel
My little sugar dove
You sure had me fooled, babe
With that sugar coated love
Sugar coated love
You gave me on a plate
I took a bite and then
I looked to see what I had ate
I found I had a cinder
All covered up in white
That old sugar coated love
Is something I can't bite"

Great Tune! I got a radio up in my blueberry bush to keep the birds out. I had it tuned in to Saturday morning bluegrass while pickin' blueberries and heard this song... I broke down and cried under the blueberry bush... still haven't fully recovered yet. Is Carter Stanley also singing in this song? He was on the tune I heard.
