Karaoké Sadie The Spinners

In a world like today it's a rare occasion to be able

To see young mothers like the ones that were around when I grew up

But they live on in memory to quite a few of us

And this song is dedicated to those who cherish that memory

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 a load 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

Sometimes it seems so funny but no money will turn your life around

Sweeter than cotton candy

Stronger than papa's old brandy

Always that needed smile

Once in a while she would break down and cry

Sometimes she'd be so happy just being with us and daddy

Standing the worst of times breaking the binds with just a simple song

Oh, Sadie Mae

Still lovin' us all in your special way

Well, well, well

Sweet Sadie

Living in the past

Oh, she's never sinnin' in love she's always winnin', yeah

My, my, my, my, my

I love you mama

I just can't forget how you gave me love

Oh, Lord

If there's a heaven up above

I know she's teaching angels how to love

It's a mean world without you

All the love you show

Oh

How could anyone ever doubt you loved the world

Ain't it funny that in the end it's not money it's just the love you gave us all

Well, well

Why do the good leave so soon

Oh

I don't know

And though the people say they love my songs

Oh Lord, I'm all alone

I miss her so, well

I love you mama

Oh

Let me just try just try one more time and say I

And though we were very poor she tried to love us that much more, oh

Have you ever

Have you ever met Sadie

Oh

The premier of ladies

Oh

Sometimes I feel so alone but I know that I gotta go on

That's what she wanted for me

I know it's gonna be hard some time

Oh, Sadie

Lord, although my mama's no longer here her memory still lingers dear, oh

Just let me run, let me run let me go, go

Why don't you

Why you wanna make me feel so down

Well, well

This feeling won't let me be

I'm going to keep on moving

I'm going to try to keep groving
