Hush now little Sally
Baby, close your eyes
Sweet dreams honey
Donżt you worry tonight
Heżs yearning for the city
Be gone for a while
He wonżt be back until the morning
Itżs gonna be one of those nights
Sleep tight little Sally
Thereżs a sky full of stars
Shining for you, honey
One day youżll go that far
Get to thinking, maybe
The wounds and the scars
Will wear off one day
Itżs just a matter of time
CHORUS:
On and on you wonder, if thereżs someone above
Why doesnżt he hear me,
donżt I pray hard enoughż
On and on you wonder, if this madness will stop
Some ainżt got it easy, some got it tough
Hush now little Sally
Close your angel eyes
A special lady
Will make the most of her life
Your skirts may be shabby
But girl with one of them smiles
Youżll lead an honest man astray
And make him wanna cry
Watch out little Sally
The old manżs messinż tonight
Theyżre yelling down the alley
Better turn on that porchlight
Lost all of the money
Down by the quayside
Heżs gambled all your dreams away
All youżve got left is you pride
