I have heard the phrase "give me a little sugar" all my life, so I do not
believe it is something the writers of Mayberry made up. I suspect it may be a
southern thing.

Thanks to Ed for explaining what "I'll be dogged" means.
Got another one for discussion. A few times in the early episodes, Andy
uses a phrase "give her a little sugar", meaning giving someone a kiss. Is
this a southern expression? (never have heard it up here in the Great White
North). Or is it something Andy or the writers made up, like "a bird in
this world"?
Just wondering.
JOE from G.I.
