About The Song

“Sugar, Sugar” is a song written by Jeff Barry and Andy Kim, initially performed by The Archies, a fictitious band associated with the 1968–69 US Saturday morning TV cartoon The Archie Show, inspired by Archie Comics. Achieving significant success, it topped the Billboard Hot 100 on September 20, 1969, and was named No. 1 on Billboard’s Year-End Countdown in the same year.

The song’s lyrics, “Sugar, ah honey honey,” symbolize love’s sweetness, portraying the euphoria of being in love. It’s a romantic expression reflecting the joy of affection. Furthermore, “Sugar, Sugar” subtly critiques the commercialization of romance, equating love with a commodity. Its repeated refrain suggests a cynical recognition of love’s commercialized nature.

Lyrics

Sugar, ah honey honey
You are my candy girl
And you’ve got me wanting you
Honey, ah sugar sugar
You are my candy girl
And you’ve got me wanting you

I just can’t believe the loveliness of loving you
(I just can’t believe it’s true)
I just can’t believe the one to love this feeling to
(I just can’t believe it’s true)

Ah sugar, ah honey honey
You are my candy girl
And you’ve got me wanting you
Ah honey, ah sugar sugar
You are my candy girl
And you’ve got me wanting you

When I kissed you, girl, I knew how sweet a kiss could be
(I know how sweet a kiss can be)
Like the summer sunshine pour your sweetness over me
(Pour your sweetness over me)

Sugar, pour a little sugar on it honey
Pour a little sugar on it baby
I’m gonna make your life so sweet, yeah yeah yeah
Pour a little sugar on it oh yeah
Pour a little sugar on it honey
Pour a little sugar on it baby
I’m gonna make your life so sweet, yeah yeah yeah
Pour a little sugar on it honey

Ah sugar, ah honey honey
You are my candy girl
And you’ve got me wanting you
Oh honey, honey, sugar sugar…
You are my candy girl…
