Lyrics

By paul mccartney

Sowhere to the south of new york city
Lies the friendly state of tennessee
Down in nashville then I met a pretty
Who made a pretty big fool out of me
And they call her sally
Sally g, why d'you wanna do the things you do to me?
You're my sally, sally g
Took the part that was the heart of me, sally g

The night life took me down to printers alley
Where sally sang a song behind a bar
I ran my eyes across her as she sang a tangled mime
I used to love to hear her sweet guitar

And they call her sally
Sally g, why d'you wanna do the things you do to me?
You're my sally, sally g
Took the part that was the heart of me, sally g

Me and sally took up
Things began to look up
Me and her were going strong

Then she started lyin'
I could see our love was dyin'
I heard a voice say
"Move along, move along"

Well now. I'm on my own again
I wonder if she ever really understood
I never thought to ask her what the letter "g" stood for
But I know for sure it wasn't good

And they call her sally
Sally g, why d'you wanna do the things you do to me?
You're my sally, sally g
Took the part that was the heart of me, sally g
