Little Sadie
Went out last night to take a little round
I met little Sadie and I blowed her down
Bummed a ride home, got in to bed
.44 smokeless under my head
I began to think what the deed I'd done
Grabbed my hat and away'd I run
Made a good run, just a little too slow
Overtook me in Jericho
Standin' on the corner, ringin' the bell
Up walks the sheriff from Thomasville
Said, "Young man, is your name Brown?"
'Member that night you shot Sadie down?"
Oh, yes sheriff, my name is Lee
I murdered little Sadie in the first degree
First degree, second degree
If you got any papers you can read'em to me
Took me downtown, dressed me in black
Put me on a train and then sent me back
Had no one for to go my bail
They crammed me back in the county jail
Judge and the jury took their stand
The judge held the papers in his right hand
41 days, 41 nights
41 years to wear the ball and the stripes
I met little Sadie and I blowed her down
Bummed a ride home, got in to bed
.44 smokeless under my head
I began to think what the deed I'd done
Grabbed my hat and away'd I run
Made a good run, just a little too slow
Overtook me in Jericho
Standin' on the corner, ringin' the bell
Up walks the sheriff from Thomasville
Said, "Young man, is your name Brown?"
'Member that night you shot Sadie down?"
Oh, yes sheriff, my name is Lee
I murdered little Sadie in the first degree
First degree, second degree
If you got any papers you can read'em to me
Took me downtown, dressed me in black
Put me on a train and then sent me back
Had no one for to go my bail
They crammed me back in the county jail
Judge and the jury took their stand
The judge held the papers in his right hand
41 days, 41 nights
41 years to wear the ball and the stripes
