Lyrics Soap Sally - Ray Stevens

Soap Sally

There is a hollow way back in the hills
A hollow they call Smoke Valley
That’s where a crazy witchy woman lives
A woman that they call Soap Sally
Since she was a child
Sally wasn’t right
She’d take off all her clothes
Go dance out in the moonlight
Her Mama and her Papanearly both went insane
Listen let me tell you how she got that name
Soap Sally
She lives back in the woods
Soap Sally
If she gets you that ain’t good
She’ll catch you, she’ll hex you, she’ll tie you up with rope
Throw you in a boilin' cauldron cook you into soap
Soap Sally
Soap Sally
Well up in the mountains so the story goes
Set foot in Smoke Valley and Soap Sally knows
She’ll jump out the bushes
She’ll shock and surprise you
She’ll do her naked dance and that will hypnotize you
Soap Sally
She lives back in the woods
Soap Sally
If she gets you that ain’t good
She’ll catch you, she’ll hex you, she’ll tie you up with rope
She’ll throw you in a boilin' cauldron cook you into soap
She’s Soap Sally
Soap Sally
A young man from Atlanta
Handsome in his prime
Walked into Smoke Valley
Back in 1999
Said he’d come to see Soap Sally
Said it was a social call
They told him «man, that woman’s crazy»
He said «heh ain’t we all»
He went walkin' through that Valley callin' for that girl
She jumped out the bushes and she began to whirl
He just took off all his clothes stacked 'em in a pile
And they both started dancin'
Lord have mercy it was wild
Soap Sally
Well you can see 'em sometimes when the moon is bright
Dancin' there together out in the moonlight
But stay out of Smoke Valley that’s my advice to you
Unless you’re young, and handsome, and a little crazy too
Soap Sally
She lives back in the woods
Soap Sally
If she gets you that ain’t good
She’ll catch you, she’ll hex you, she’ll tie you up with rope
Throw you in a boilin' cauldron cook you into soap
Soap Sally
