Richard Thompson - Sally B lyrics

Thompson Sally B, oh Sally B, you make my heart flutter Will you drag me from the gutter, Sally B Sally B, oh Sally B, I'm a working man truly But you know how to woo me, Sally B Sally B, oh Sally B, the bank's repossessing It's hard times I'm guessing, Sally B. You've got the style touches the people You've got the style You've got the style touches the people, Sally B. Now they talk way down south without moving their mouth And the houses are old antebellum There you'll find supporters, revolutionary daughters Who'll believe everything that you tell 'em. Sally B, oh Sally B, who needs them books When you've got them looks, Sally B Sally B, oh Sally B, the crown of thorns suit you You're my hope for the future, Sally B. You've got the style touches the people You've got the style You've got the style touches the people, Sally B. The crazies are raving so keep the flag waving It still hypnotizes the ma**es And how many stumpers can cause such a rumpus With a smile and a shake of the cha**is? Sally B, oh Sally B, oh you talk so down-homey Oh you talk like you know me, Sally B Sally B, oh Sally B, your blue eyes are steely But you smile so sincerely, Sally B. Sally B, oh Sally B, with the gifts that God gave you Will you be my savior, Sally B Sally B, oh Sally B, you make my heart flutter Will you drag me from the gutter, Sally B.
