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 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 papa's 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 (She'll love us all in a special way)

Sweet Sadie (Well, well, well)

Place no one above you

Sweet Sadie (Sweet Sadie livin' in the past)

Living in the past

Oh, she's never sinnin'

In love she's always winnin', yeah

Sadie (My, my, my, my, my)

Don't you know we love you (I love you, mama)

Sweet Sadie

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

Sweet Sadie (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 (It's a mean world without you)

Don't you know we love you

Sweet Sadie (All the love you showed)

Place no one above you (Oh, I could never, ever doubt her lovely word)

Sweet Sadie

Living in the past

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

It's just the love
