SPOKEN WORDS

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

START SINGING HERE

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

(living in the past)

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)

(Don't you know we love you,sweet Sadie)

she'll love us all in a special way

Well, well, well(place no one above you)

sweet Sadie Living in the past

Oh, she's never sinnin'In love

she's always winnin', yeah

(Sadie,don't you know we

love you, sweet Sadie?) my,my, my,

I love you, mama

(Place no one above you,sweet Sadie)

I just can't forget How U gave me love

oh ,Lord (living in the past)

If there's a heaven up above

I know she's teaching angels how to love

(Sadie,don't you know we

love you, sweet Sadie?)

it's a mean world without you

All the love you showed

(Place no one above you,sweet Sadie)

oh, how could anyone ever doubt

your lovely word (Living in the past)

Ain't it funny that in the end,

it's not money It's just the love

you gave us all?
