Doc Watson - Little Sadie Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Went out last night to take a little round,
  • I met my Little Sadie and I blowed her down.
  • I run right home and I went to bed,
  • A forty-four smokeless under my head.
  • I begin to think what a deed I done,
  • I grabbed my hat and away'd I'd run.
  • I made a good run, just a little to slow,
  • They overtook me in Jericho.
  • Standing on the corner a-ringing a bell
  • And up stepped the sheriff from Thomasville,
  • Says, 'Young man, is your name Brown?
  • Remember the night you blowed Sadie down.'
  • 'Oh, yes, Sir, my name is Lee,
  • I murdered little Sadie in the first degree,
  • First degree and second degree,
  • Got any papers, will you read 'em to me?'
  • Took me downtown and dressed me in black,
  • They put me on a train and they sent me back,
  • Had no one for to go my bail,
  • Crammed me back in the county jail.
  • Judge and the jury took their stand,
  • Judge had his papers in his right hand.
  • Forty-one days, forty-one nights,
  • Forty-one years to wear the ball and the stripes.
