[Opinions] Re: Sadie
in reply to a message by Amandine
John Farnham, anyone? Sadie The Cleaning Lady? First two stanzas, coming up!
Sadie, the cleaning lady
With trusty scrubbing brush and pail of water
Worked her fingers to the bone, for the life she had at home,
Providing at the same time for her daughter
Ahh Sadie, the cleaning lady
Her aching knee's not getting any younger
Well her red detergent hands, have for years not held a man's
And time would find her heart in spite of hunger
Scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
Can't afford to get bored, dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady

And time would find her heart in spite of hunger
Scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie

Can't afford to get bored, dear old Sadie
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady

Sister Sadie was a mean chick
and she tho′t that she was real slick
then she ran into Alphonso Brown
She hasn't been the same since Alphonso put her down.
Sister Sadie never worried
Sister Sadie never hurried
Then she ran into Alphonso Brown
She hasn′t been the same since Alphonso put her down.
She just paces around the floor
She don't have any mind no more
She just stares into empty space
With a frown on her face.
Sister Sadie was a honey
Always had a lots a money.
Then she rain into Alphonso Brown
She hasn't been the same since Alphonso put her down.
Sexy Sadie, what have you done?
You made a fool of everyone
You made a fool of everyone
Sexy Sadie, oh, what have you done?
Sexy Sadie, you broke the rules
You laid it down for all to see
You laid it down for all to see
Sexy Sadie, oh, you broke the rules
One sunny day, the world was waiting for the lover
She came along to turn on everyone
Sexy Sadie (Sexy Sadie), the greatest (she's the greatest) of them all
Sexy Sadie, how did you know?
The world was waiting just for you
The world was waiting just for you
Sexy Sadie, oh, how did you know?
Sexy Sadie, you'll get yours yet
However big you think you are
However big you think you are
Sexy Sadie, oh, you'll get yours yet
We gave her everything we owned just to sit at her table (Sexy Sadie)
Just a smile would lighten everything
Sexy Sadie (Sexy Sadie, she's the greatest) she's the latest and the greatest of them all
(Sexy Sadie, she's the latest and the greatest of them all)
She made a fool of everyone
(Sexy Sadie)
However big you think you are
(Sexy Sadie)
I usually like names associated with music but don't like these as associations.
