Little Sadie Lyrics

I went out last night and I made my rounds
I went out last night and I made my rounds
Says I met Little Sadie and I shot her down

Says I went back home and I went to bed
Says I went back home and I went to bed
Says I stuck my pistol right under my head

Says I begun to think on the crime I done
Says I begun to think on the crime I done
Says I grabbed my hat and I started to run

I made a pretty good run but a little too slow
I made a pretty good run but a little too slow
Said the sheriff overtook me down in Baltimore

I was standing on the corner just reading a bill
Says standing on the corner, just reading a bill
Up stalked the sheriff from Louisville

"Young man, young man, is your name Brown?"
"Young man, young man, is your name Brown?"
I believe you're the man shot your woman down

No sir, no sir, my name is Robert E. Lee
No sir, no sir, my name is Robert E. Lee
If you've got any papers, don't read 'em to me

Says I left from the train all painted in black
Says I left from the train all painted in black
Said they 'rrested me and they taken me back

I got up early next morning, put on my boots
I got up early next morning, put on my boots
Said they sent me down to Franklin to wear the stripéd suit
