Ernest Tubb - Sweet Thang lyrics

I slipped out of the house about sundown while mama was a washin' her hair And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come lookin' for me When she finds that I'm not there And if she catches her sweet thang runnin' around I know there'll be the devil to pay She'll come blowin' like a cyclone right through that door And I can hear exactly what she'll say Well has anybody here see sweet thang I got a notion he'll be headed this a way Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around He finds a sandbox like this to play I want to tell all you barroom roses if my sweet thang does have a bite You'd better take my advice and if you'll blink more than twice You'd better have somethin' in your eyes I gave my baby all my money on payday except a little she don't know that I got Cause there's a cute little waitress at the corner cafe And she seems to like me quite a lot While we were sittin' in the back booth a havin' a talk She believed in every word that I said When the door blew open Loretta walked in yellin' loud enough to wake the dead Well has anybody here see sweet thang... You'd better take my advice...
