作曲：M. Carter/Johnny Cash

Out on a shrimp boat

I just dropped the net

When the wind she come to

blowin' whizzin' bad all to get

I look south east and golly me what I see

A black thundercloud

with them fuzzy eyebrows

Come a lookin' direct towards

Boudleaux and me

I turned to Boudleaux and me I said

Put the sugar to bed put the sugar to bed

Lock up the coffee in the coffee pot

Put the flour in your pillow

cause it's all we got

Hang the lantern from the ceiling and

watch your head

Ho Boudleaux put the sugar to bed

Boudleaux put the sugar to bed

Well the sky she get dark and then

she turn dark black

I yell she gonna blow one right out

of the Almanac

A big raindrop smacked me right on the ear

And I hollered hey Boudleaux

but the way the wind blow

He just as soon be deaf there

wasn't no how to hear

I try to call to Boudleaux

but slid instead

Then me and Boudleaux put

the sugar to bed

Well the ends of that shrimpin' boat

was switchin' around

She turned sideways and inners

and outers and upside down

The water come in tryin' to drown

the both of us

The closet top open and the shillet

went a flyin' me I hit my head and kinda cuss

But most of all I frowned when

she calm that I said

Put the sugar to bed put the sugar to bed

Ain't nothin' dry but my railroad watch

the salt got soggy but we still can budge

We built a fire for the coffee and we chicory fed

Cause me and Boudleaux put the sugar to bed

Me and Boudleaux put the sugar to bed
