Sadie (LP版) - The Spinners

In a world like today

It's a rare occasion to be able

To see young mothers like the ones

That were around when I grew up

But they live on in memory

To quite a few of us

And this song is dedicated

To those who cherish that memory

Early one Sunday morning

Breakfast was on the table

There was no time to eat

She said to me Boy

Hurry to Sunday school

Filled with her load of glory

We learned the Holy story

She'll always have her dreams

Despite the things

This troubled world can bring

Oh Sadie

Don't you know we love you

Sweet Sadie

Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie (Well well well)

Living in the past

Some times it seems so funny

But no money

Will turn your life around

Sweeter than cotton candy

Stronger than papas old brandy

Always that needed smile

Once in awhile

She would break down and cry

Some times she'd be so happy

Just being with us and daddy

Standing the worst of times

Breaking the binds

With just a simple song

Oh Sadie (Oh Sadie baby)

Don't you know we love you

Sweet Sadie (Well well well)

Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie

Living in the past

Oh shes never sinnin

In love shes always winnin yeah

Sadie (My my my my my)

Don't you know we love you

Sweet Sadie

Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie

Living in the past

If theres a heaven up above

I know shes teaching angels how to love

Sadie

Don't you know we love you

Sweet Sadie

(All the love you showed)

Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie

Living in the past

(Early one Sunday morning Breakfast)
