Charlie Nickerson: That's all right, I'll be right back as soon as I go down here and tell Ben about this new gal
Ben Ramey: New gal?
CN: Yeah, ain't you heard about her, Ben?
BR: No, who is she?
CN: Some gal just blowed into Memphis and she's too tight
BR: What kind of gal is that?
CN: Her name is Sadie Green
BR: Have mercy! Must be from New Orleans, ain't she?
CN: I'm gonna tell you about her now!
BR: All right, let's go

[Verse 1]
Down in Memphis, Tennessee
There's a gal, sweet as she can be
'Tain't nobody else but Sadie Green

[Verse 2]
Shе's not too thin, not too fat
But everything about her is tight likе that
And everybody's talking 'bout Sadie Green

[Verse 3]
She wears her dresses above her knees
Lets folks say what they please
Everybody's talking 'bout Sadie Green

[Verse 4]
She lets you ride her in your car
But won't let you ride her too far
Everybody's talking 'bout Sadie Green

[Verse 5]
She don't dress shabby, and wears a tam
Legs look as nice as Georgia ham
That's why they talking ‘bout Sadie Green

[Verse 6]
She uses powder, uses paint
It makes her look like what she ain't
That's why they're talking 'bout Sadie Green

[Verse 7]
She's stingy, so they say
Because she won't give nothing away
Everybody knows Sadie Green

[Verse 8]
When she dances she don't move her head
But moves everything else instead
Everybody's talking 'bout Sadie Green

[Verse 9]
Ben, you can believe it or not
Some day I'll see what Sadie's got
Then that will be the last of Sadie
Sadie, Sadie, Sadie Green
