Sadie

(アルバム： 12 Play - 1993)

This song goes out to my mother
The one I love and the one I lost
When it comes down to thinking about what my mother's done for me, the love she's given me
It makes it easy to do a song like this
So this one's for you ma, I love you

Early one Sunday morning
Breakfast was on the table
There was no time to eat
She said to me, "Boy, hurry to Sunday school"
Filled with the long of glory
We learned the holy story
She'll always have her dreams
Despite the things
This troubled world can bring

Oh Sadie, don't you know we love you, sweet Sadie
Place no one above you, sweet Sadie
Well, well, well
Living in the past
Sometimes it seems so funny
No money can turn your life around

Sweeter than cotton candy
Stronger than papas' old Brandy
Always that needed smile
Once in a while she would break down and cry
Sometimes she'd be so happy
Being with us and daddy
Standing the worst of times
Breaking the binds with just a simple song

Oh Sadie, she's loving my song in a special way
Sweet Sadie, living in the past
Oh, she's never sinning in love she's always winning
My my my my my
I love you mama
I just can't forget how you gave me love oh no
If there's a heaven up above, I know she's teaching angels how to love
It's a mean world without ya
And I surely miss you much mother
And now that your gone I'm gonna carry on
'Cause you're crying lady
Ooh Sadie
When I think about the things that you done for me
Hey it brings a joy way down deep inside of me

Oh oh oh oo oh
See I love you mama
Yes I do
I'll never forget you mama no
Oh oh oh
