Sadie, The Cleaning Lady |
Sadie, the cleaning lady |
With trusty scrubing brush and pale of water |
Worked her fingers to the bone |
For the life she had at home |
Providing at the same for her daughter |
Oh Sadie, the cleaning lady |
Her aching knee’s not getting any younger |
Well her red detergent hands |
Have for years not held a mans |
And time would find her hard in spite of hunger |
Scrub your floors, do your chores |
Dear old Sadie |
Looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady |
Can’t afford to get board |
Dear old Sadie |
Looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady |
Oh Sadie, the cleaning lady |
Her female mind would find a way of trapping |
Though as gentle as a lamb |
Sam the elevator man |
So she could spend the night by tv napping |
Oh Sadie, the cleaning lady |
Her aching knee’s not getting any younger |
Well her red detergent hands |
Have for years not held a mans |
And time would find her hard in spite of hunger |
Scrub your floors, do your chores |
Dear old Sadie |
Looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady |
Can’t afford to get board |
Dear old Sadie |
Looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady |
Oh Sadie, the cleaning lady |
Her Sam was what she got for crying and singing |
To her solo and dismay |
She’s still working 'till this day |
Her sam then that to be another singer |
Scrub your floors, do your chores |
Dear old Sadie |
Looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady |
