Sexy Sally

Sexy Sally leave me alone
I've got a pretty girl at home
I'm a country singer with a ring on my finger
So leave me alone, Sexy Sally, leave me alone.

Don't you cast your loving eyes on me,
You're barking up someone else's tree,
I may look easy, lord, but I ain't free,
So don't you cast your loving eyes on me.

My wife's got velvet skin
Big brown eyes and a dimple on her chin
She's as pretty as an apple blossom
Now you know why I'm playing 'possum.

Sexy Sally leave me alone
I've got a pretty girl at home
I'm a country singer with a ring on my finger
So leave me alone, Sexy Sally, leave me alone.

I ain't gonna watch the way you dance,
Ain't gonna give my wandering mind a chance,
I won't be entranced in no one night romance,
Ain't gonna give my wandering mind a chance.
And here's the reason why:

My wife's got velvet skin
Big brown eyes and a dimple on her chin
She's as pretty as an apple blossom
Now you know why I'm playing 'possum.

Sexy Sally leave me alone
I've got a pretty girl at home
I'm a country singer with a ring on my finger
So leave me alone, Sexy Sally, leave me alone.
Leave me alone, Sexy Sally, leave me alone.
