Sadie

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 memoryEarly 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 a load of glory

We learned the Holy story

She'll always have her dreams

Despite the things this troubled world can bringOh, Sadie

Don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?

Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie, well, well, well (living in the past)

Sometimes it seems so funny

But no money will turn your life aroundSweeter than cotton candy

Stronger than papa's old brandy

Always that needed smile

Once in a while, she would break down and crySometimes she'd be so happy

Just being with us and daddy

Standing the worst of times

Breaking the binds with just a simple songOh (Sadie) Sadie, baby

(Don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?) she'll love us all in a special way

Well, well, well (place no one above you) sweet Sadie

Living in the past

Oh, she's never sinnin'

In love she's always winnin', yeah(Sadie, don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?) my, my, my, I love you, mama

(Place no one above you, sweet Sadie) I just can't forget

How you gave me love, oh, Lord (living in the past)

If there's a heaven up above

I know she's teaching angels how to love(Sadie, don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?) it's a mean world without you

All the love you showed

(Place no one above you, sweet Sadie) oh, how could anyone ever doubt your lovely word?

(Living in the past)

Ain't it funny that in the end, it's not money

It's just the love you gave us all?(Sadie, don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?) Why, why do the good leave so soon?

(Place no-one above you, sweet Sadie) oh, I don't know (living in the past)

And though the people say they love my songs

Oh Lord, I'm all alone, I miss her so

(Sadie, don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?) well, I love you, mama

(Place no one above you, sweet Sadie) oh

Let me just try, just try one more time and say, I (living in the past)

And though we were very poor, she tried to love us that much more, oh

(Sadie)

Have you ever, have you ever met Sadie? (don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?)

(Place no one above you, sweet Sadie) oh

The premier of ladies (living in the past)Oh, sometimes I feel so alone

But I know that I gotta on

(Sadie) that's what she wanted for me

(Don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?) I know it's gonna be hard some time

(Place no one above you, sweet Sadie) oh Sadie

(Living in the past) lord, although my mama's no longer here

Her memory still lingers dear, ah(Sadie) just let me run, let me run, let me go

(Don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie?) why don't you?

Why you wanna make me feel so bad? (place no one above you, sweet Sadie)

Well, well, just get home, let me be (living in the past)

I'm going to keep on moving, I'm going to try to keep groving
