If You See Sally Lyrics


(Annette Hanshaw version 1927)
Two pals were friends before your day.
They both were going different ways
And one decided he'd go home to stay.
He said, "I'll see your sweetheart there;
She’ll want to know if you still care."
The other boy replied,
"Here's what to say:
"If you see Sally tell her that you saw me,
And, when you saw me- I was blue.
"And if you hear sweet Sally asking for me,
Just tell her that- that I was asking for her too.

"If it seems to you that she still cares for me,
Let me know- I’ll go wherever she may be.
But if you see that someone else means more to Sally-
Don’t tell her that you saw me."

Annette Hanshaw (October 18, 1901 - March 13, 1985) was one of the first great female jazz singers. In the late 1920s she ranked alongside Ethel Waters, Bessie Smith and The Boswell Sisters. Her singing style was relaxed and suited the new jazz-influenced pop music of the late 1920s. Although she had a low opinion of her own singing, she continues to have fans because of how she combined the voice of an ingenue with the spirit of a flapper.
