Lyrics Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson

Sally B

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

Now 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 all 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 masses

And how many stumpers

Can cause such a rumpus

With a smile and a shake of the chassis?

Sally B, oh Sally B

You talk so down-homey

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
