"Sugartime" is a popularsong written by Charlie Phillips and Odis Echols, and published in 1957. The biggest hit version was by the McGuire Sisters, whose recording of it topped the Most Played chart in February 1958.[2] It was also the second number 1 Billboard single for the trio after 1954's "Sincerely". The song refers to the Jimmie Rodgers tune "Honeycomb", which had been recorded a few months earlier in 1957.
The McGuire Sisters themselves covered it in a twist arrangement in 1960. It was their last chart hit as a trio, bubbling under the Billboard Hot 100 at number 107.
