Lyrics

By allen b. toussaint

-"Ev'rybody dance!"

(Sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)
(Sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)

Sneaking sally through the alley
Tryin' to keep her from sight
Sneaking sally through the alley
My baby caught me last night

I said, "i can't find nothing wrong with being friends
'Cause sometimes she lets me use her car."
She said, "if you can't find nothing wrong in your mind
I know you've gone too far

Sneaking sally through the alley
Tryin' to get away clean. (tryin' to get away)
Sneaking sally through the alley
My baby saw the whole scene

So I began to try and explain
But it just wasn't, wasn't much of a thought
Now I should find me somebody new, (somebody new)
'Cause this man has been caught

She caught me sneaking with sally through the alley
Tryin' to get away clean
Sneaking with sally through the alley
I know you know what I mean. (what I mean, what I mean)

(Tryin' to get away)
(Tryin' to get away)
(Tryin' to get away)

(Sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)
(Sneaking sally through the alley, oo, oo, oo)

I talk double talk
Anything's trouble talk
Catching myself in lies
Mama, just look at me
Thinking about killing me
I saw it in her eyes

(Oh , oh, oh)

She caught me sneaking with sally through the alley
Tryin' to keep her from sight
I was sneaking with sally through that alley
My baby caught me last night

Well, I was sneaking sally through that alley
Tryin' to get away clean
You know, sneaking with sally without knowing
My baby saw the whole scene

(Oh, oh, oh)

And you know what happened, man?
She got right up to me one more time
She said
"What are you doing in the alley with that sally?"
I said
"You'll just wait till tomorrow and we'll talk!"

(Sneaking with sally)
