john farnham - sadie lyrics
sadie, the cleaning lady
with trusty scrubbing brush and pale of water
worked her fingers to the bone, for the life she had at home
providing at the same time for her daughter
ahh sadie, the cleaning lady
her aching knees not getting any younger
well her red detergent hands, have for years not held a man’s
and time would find her heart in spite of hunger
scrub your floors, do your ch-r-s, dear old sadie
looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady
can’t afford to get bored dear old sadie
looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady
ahh sadie, the cleaning lady
her female mind would find a way of trapping
though as gentle as a lamb, sam the elevator man
so she could spend the night by tv, napping
ahh sadie, the cleaning lady
her aching knees not getting any younger
well her red detergent hands, have for years not held a man’s
and time would find her heart in spite of hunger
ahh, scrub your floors, do your ch-r-s, dear old sadie
looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady
can’t afford to get bored dear old sadie
looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady
ahh sadie, the cleaning lady
her sam was what she got, hook, line and sinker
to her sorrow and dismay, she’s still working to this day
her sam turned out to be a nervous figure
ahh, scrub your floors, do your ch-r-s, dear old sadie
looks as though you’ll always be a cleaning lady
can’t afford to get bored dear old sadie (fade)
