James Taylor - Sadie Lyrics
Early one Sunday morningBreakfast was on the tableThere was no time to eatShe said to me, Boy, hurry to Sunday schoolFilled with her load of gloryWe learned the Holy storyShe'll always have her dreamsDespite the things this troubled world can bringOh, SadieDon't you know we love youSweet SadiePlace no one above youSweet Sadie (Well, well, well)Living in the pastSome times it seems so funnyBut no money will turn your life aroundSweeter than cotton candyStronger than papa's old brandyAlways that needed smileOnce in awhile she would break down and crySome times she'd be so happyJust being with us and daddyStanding the worst of timesBreaking the binds with just a simple songOh, Sadie (Oh, Sadie, baby)Don't you know we love you (She'll love us all in a special way)Sweet Sadie (Well, well, well)Place no one above youSweet Sadie (Sweet Sadie livin' in the past)Living in the pastOh, she's never sinnin'In love she's always winnin', yeahSadie (My, my, my, my, my)Don't you know we love you (I love you, mama)Sweet SadiePlace no one above you (I just can't forget)Sweet Sadie (How you gave me love, oh, Lord)Living in the pastIf there's a heaven up aboveI know she's teaching angels how to loveSadie (It's a mean world without you)Don't you know we love youSweet Sadie (All the love you showed)Place no one above you (Oh, I could never, ever doubt her lovely word)Sweet SadieLiving in the pastAin't it funny that in the end it's not moneyIt's just the love you gave us all
