{sob}Intro{eob} [C]* [Am] x 4
[C] Sadie, the cleaning [G7] lady,
With trusty scrubbing brush and pail of [C] water
[C7] Worked her [F] fingers to the bone,
for the [C] life she had at [A7] home
Pro[D7]viding at the same time for her [G7] daughter
{c: }
Ah [C] Sadie, the cleaning [G7] lady,
Her aching knees not getting any [C] younger
[C7] Well her [F] red detergent hands,
Had for [C] years not held a [A7] man's
And [D7] time would find her heart expired of [G7] hunger
{c: }
Scrub your [C] floors, do your chores, dear old [D7] Sadie
Looks as [G7] though you'll always be a cleaning [C] lady
Can't afford to get bored, dear old [D7] Sadie
Looks as [G7] though you'll always be a cleaning [C] lady
{c: }
Ah [C] Sadie, the cleaning [G7] lady,
Her female mind would find a way of [C] trapping [C7]
Though as [F] gentle as a lamb, Sam the [C] elevator [A7] man
So [D7] she could spend the night by TV [G7] napping.
{c: }
Ah [C] Sadie, the cleaning [G7] lady,
Her Sam was what she got hook, line and [C] sinker [C7]
To her [F] sorrow and dismay, She's still [C] working to this [A7] day
Her [D7] Sam turned out to be a no-good [G7] stinker
{c: }
Scrub your [C] floors, do your chores, dear old [D7] Sadie
Looks as [G7] though you'll always be a cleaning [C] lady
Can't afford to get bored, dear old [D7] Sadie
Looks as [G7] though you'll always be a cleaning [C] lady
