Hush now little Sally

Baby

close your eyes

sweet dreams honey

hey don't you worry tonight

He's yearning for the city be gonna for a while

He won't be back until the morning

it's gonna be one of those nights.



Sleep tight little Sally

hey there's a sky full of stars

shining for you

honey

hey one day you'll go that far

Get to thinking

maybe the wounds and the scars

will wear off one day. It's just a matter of time.



On and on you wonder

if there's someone above

why doesn't he hear me

don't I pray hard enough?

On and on you wonder

if this madness will stop

some ain't got it easy some got it rough.



Brass



Hush now little Sally

hey close your angel eyes.

A special lady hey will make the most of her life.

Your skirts may be shabby hey

but girl with one of them smiles

you'll lead an honest man astray

and make him wanny cry.



Watch out little Sally

hey the old man's messin' tonight.

They're yelling down the alley

hey better turn on that porchlight.

Lost all of the money hey down by the quayside

he's gambled all your dreams away



all you've got left is your pride.

On and on you wonder

if there's someone above

why doesn't he hear me

don't I pray hard enough?

On and on you wonder

if this madness will stop

some ain't got it easy some got it rough
