Sweet Sadie the Savior

They say she was a preacher

Spoke the gospels soft and low

Nobody had to teach her

'Cause it came from her heart, you know

She could make wrong men cry

Bring the spire to the sunken glide

Saving sinners' souls was her life

Sweet Sadie the Savior

Sadie, Sadie, Sadie the Savior

I saw her on a Sunday

And although I was very small

The way she moved my soul

To this day I can still recall

Through the eyes of a child

I saw God for a little while

Good Lord, she had a heavenly style

Sweet Sadie the Savior

Sadie the Savior, dear girl

Tell me where have you gone

Sadie the Savior, yes girl

Now you've left us alone

You knew the answers

To the questions of life

You took the answers

And left us here to strive

They say she had a vision

She was gonna travel far

That she would need her Maker

And He would take her to the star

So if I'm looking in the sky

And you see a twinkle in that eye

No one's really shining so high

Sweet Sadie the Savior

So if I'm looking in the sky

And you see a twinkle in my eye

No one's really shining so high

Sweet Sadie the Savior

(Sadie)

Oh, Sadie, old lady

(Sadie)

Is that old lady Sadie

(The Savior)

(Sadie)

Sadie

(Sadie)

I just don't remember a girl

(The Savior)

Talking of Sadie

(Sadie)

Sadie, hey, hey

(Sadie, the Savior)

(Sadie)

Sadie...
