All Rights Reserved Mmmmm... when morning breaks over the city And that sun, it starts to rise Yeah, when morning breaks over lake michigan And that golden sun starts to rise When I see that sweet love in her eyes Oh Lord, its enough to make a grown man cry Her touch is softer than summer wind Blooming in July's warm rain Yeah, softer than Chicago summer wind Dancing in that summer rain But dare cross her once, my friend You'll never be the same man again She's sugar and storm (She's sugar and storm) Heaven and hell combined (Heaven and hell, oh Lord) Like honey in your coffee, boys But whiskey when you cross the line I seen her nurse a broken sparrow Back to life with tender care Mmmhmmm, I watched her save that broken sparrow With such sweet and gentle care But when a snake came creepin' Lord, she GAVE that snake nuthin' but despair Now listen close, I'm gonna tell you 'Bout the fire in her soul Yeah, lean in close while I tell you 'Bout that fire deep in her soul Like Chicagi-O in August, boys That heat's gonna take its toll They say the sweetest roses Got the sharpest thorns And the brightest lightning Comes from the darkest storms My woman's love runs deeper Than the Chicago Rivers flow But her fury burns hotter Than any fire you'll ever know She'll make the strongest men tremble If he was to dare to do her wrong Oh Lord, watch them warriors tremble If they ever dare to do her wrong 'Cause her love's a blessing, boys But her wrath is twice as strong She's sugar and storm (She's sugar and storm) Heaven and hell combined (Heaven and hell, oh Lord) Like honey in your coffee, boys But whiskey when you cross the line (Yes, whiskey when you cross that line) Sweet as Sunday morning Wild as Saturday night Handle her with care, my boy Handle her with care...
