Well, Sadie's momma told her, |
|
You're nearly twenty one, |
|
It's time to find a man and settle down, |
|
She prettied up her Auburn hair, |
|
Put on her best perfume, |
|
Then headed for the dance down town. |
|
[chorus] |
|
Oh, Sadie's got her new dress on, Lord Lord |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on, |
|
Her momma's done and said, |
|
She's old enough to wed, |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on. |
|
Hey, look yonder comin' Charlie Taylor said |
|
I've never seen a girl with eyes that green, |
|
But Sadie Rose just pat him on the head, |
|
And dance a jig with Billy Dean. |
|
[chorus] |
|
Oh, Sadie's got her new dress on, Lord Lord, |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on, |
|
Her momma's done and said, |
|
She's old enough to wed, |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on. |
|
[Bridge] |
|
Well, Bobby said Billy I can't believe my eyes, |
|
The Sadie Rose is looking mighty fine, |
|
Then Billy said to Bobby I was lookin' at her too, |
|
And I'll be the one to make her mine. |
|
[chorus] |
|
Oh, Sadie's got her new dress on, Lord Lord |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on |
|
Her momma's done and said, |
|
She's old enough to wed |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on |
|
Oh, Sadie's got her new dress on, Lord Lord |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on, |
|
Her momma's done and said, |
|
She's old enough to wed, |
|
Sadie's got her new dress on. |
|
[Spoken] |
|
Hey, look over there, Dole, Sadie's got her new dress on |
|
Ah, she's alookin' good tonight, Jamie. Move ol' Billy outta the way. I believe she's looking at you. |
|
I sure hope so. |
|
Yea, Sadie's got her new dress on. |
