Poison Sugar

(Dennis Knutson, A.L. Doodle Owens)

He's tall dark and dangerous

He's a love thief on the run

He's a moonlight bandit

Brother to the devil's son

He'll cover you with sweet talk

Tell you what you want to hear

Then he'll take your smiling face

And he'll cover it with tears

Oh they call him poison sugar

Cause there's poison in his kiss

Oh you ladies warn your daughters

About the stranger with the poison lips

His hands warm your body like the morning Georgia sun

You'll think you found forever in his arms before he's done

With honey dripping off his words

Your passion takes him home

His lying lips won't tell you

You'll be waking up alone

Repeat Chorus

You could find him on a dark street

You could meet him at the store

He could even wake you up

Knocking on your door

Well, I'm talking from experience

I'm a victim of his kiss

I'm just one of the many

He's loved and left like this

Repeat Chorus x3
