No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature

• Recorded: 1969
• Release Date: 1970
• Artist: The Guess Who

• Lonely feeling deep inside
• Find a corner where I can hide
• Silent footsteps crowding me
• Sudden darkness but I can see

• No sugar tonight in my coffee
• No sugar tonight in my tea
• No sugar to stand beside me
• No sugar to run with me

• Dat'n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow
• Dat'n-doo-dow dow-dow-dow
• Dat'n-doo-dow dow-dat'n-doo-dow
• Dat'n-doo-dow dow

• In the silence of her mind
• Quiet movements where I can find
• Grabbing for me with her eyes
• Now I'm falling from her skies

[Chorus]

• Jocko says yes, and I believe him
• When we talk about the things I say
• She hasn't got the faith or the guts to * leave him
• When they're standing in each other's way
• You're tripping back now to places you've been to
• You wonder what you're gonna find
• You know you've been wrong but it won't be long
• Before you leave 'em all far behind

• 'Cause it's the new Mother Nature taking over
• It's the new splendid lady come to call
• It's the new Mother Nature taking over
• She's gettin' us all
• She's gettin' us all

• Jocko said no, when I came back last time
• It's looking like I lost a friend
• No use callin' 'cause the sky is fallin'
• And I'm getting pretty near the end
• A smoke-filled room in a corner basement
• The situation must be right
• A bag of goodies and a bottle of wine
• We're gonna get it on right tonight
