[Verse 1]
I lost my sugar in Salt Lake City
Oh, why did I go there?
I should have stayed down in New Orleans
And never gone nowhere

[Verse 2]
A gal with sweet talk from Kansas City
Her words were sweet like wine
She wore those diamonds and had limousines
And stole that man of mine

[Bridge]
When night comes creeping
For me, there ain't no sleeping
What he sowed, he's gonna be reaping
For he done me wrong

[Verse 3]
I cried my heart out in Salt Lake City
The day I heard the news
He left me deep in my solitude
With the blues, the Salt Lake City blues
