lyrics

This is Sally Ann

Second hand coat and old worn out shoes
Factory whistle plays you those working man’s blues
You pound out the hours that make a working day
Thinking about her smile it helps take your mind away
And everything’s been better since you heard somebody say: this is Sally Ann

CHORUS

This is Sally Ann, gliding through the door like a lonely soldier’s dream
This is Sally Ann, she’s glimmering like gold from a cold Alaska stream
And when she takes your hand, and she whispers in your ear
It’s like a gentle summer breeze
You look in her eyes and realize
There’s nothing that you would not do to please
To please Sally Ann

******
Silent and strong, that’s how you used to roll
Then she came along, and she opened up a window to your soul
Your heart got a running start, now it’s flying like a bird
Her voice is the sweetest sound that you’ve ever heard
And everything is better since somebody said the words: this is Sally Ann (CHORUS)

BRIDGE

You lay awake and wonder
What you did to deserve this
Must be something in a past life
That made you worthy of a kiss
A kiss from Sally Ann… (CHORUS)
