Sally Ann
Ah, one, two, three
Ah, one, two, three
My true love did breathe by the Sally Ann so softly
That while walkin' through town
Only my heart did hear him
In views of the city
There ain't many folks by the Sally Ann so pretty
That while walkin' through town
Many a twisted feature
Made a terrible beauty, beauty
And then I knew
And then I knew
I'd been there before
One thing you must know by the Sally Ann directly
Is that the pockets don't hold any more sunken treasures
After baptism by whiskey
But when leaving the bar by the Sally Ann just barely
That old angel may allow light from above the mountain
And red brick walls blooming, you might see
And then you'll know
And then you'll know
You've been there
And then you'll know
And then you'll know
You've been there before
Ah, one, two, three
My true love did breathe by the Sally Ann so softly
That while walkin' through town
Only my heart did hear him
In views of the city
There ain't many folks by the Sally Ann so pretty
That while walkin' through town
Many a twisted feature
Made a terrible beauty, beauty
And then I knew
And then I knew
I'd been there before
One thing you must know by the Sally Ann directly
Is that the pockets don't hold any more sunken treasures
After baptism by whiskey
But when leaving the bar by the Sally Ann just barely
That old angel may allow light from above the mountain
And red brick walls blooming, you might see
And then you'll know
And then you'll know
You've been there
And then you'll know
And then you'll know
You've been there before
