Sally
Hush now little Sally
Baby, close your eyes
Sweet dreams honey
Dont you worry tonight
Hes yearning for the city
Be gone for a while
He wont be back until the morning
Its gonna be one of those nights
Sleep tight little Sally
Theres a sky full of stars
Shining for you, honey
One day youll go that far
Get to thinking, maybe
The wounds and the scars
Will wear off one day
Its just a matter of time
CHORUS:
On and on you wonder,
If theres someone above
Why doesnt he hear me,
Dont I pray hard enough?
On and on you wonder,
If this madness will stop
Some aint got it easy, some got it tough
Hush now little Sally
Close your angel eyes
A special lady
Will make the most of her life
Your skirts may be shabby
But girl with one of them smiles
Youll lead an honest man astray
And make him wanna cry
Watch out little Sally
The old mans messin tonight
Theyre yelling down the alley
Better turn on that porchlight
Lost all of the money
Down by the quayside
Hes gambled all your dreams away
All youve got left is you pride
CHORUS:
On and on you wonder,
If theres someone above
Why doesnt he hear me,
Dont I pray hard enough?
On and on you wonder,
If this madness will stop
Some aint got it easy, some got it tough
