Loretta Lynn "Sweet Thang" |
Loretta Lynn and Buck Owens (Buck) I slipped out of the house about sundown While mama was a washin' her hair And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come lookin' for me When she finds that I'm not there. And if she catches her sweet thang runnin' around I know there'll be the devil to pay She'll come blowin' like a cyclone right through that door And I can hear exactly what she'll say. (Loretta) Well, has anybody here seen sweet thang I got a notion he'll be headed this a way 'Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around He finds a sandbox like this to play. I wanna tell all you barroom roses If my sweet thang does have a bite You'd better take my advice and if you'll blink more than twice You'd better have somethin' in your eyes. (Buck) I gave my baby all my money on payday Except a little she don't know that I got 'Cause there's a cute little waitress at the corner cafe And she seems to like me quite a lot. While we were sittin' in the back booth a havin' a talk She believed in every word that I said When the door blew open, Loretta walked in Yellin' loud enough to wake the dead. (Loretta) Well, has anybody here see sweet thang I got a notion he'll be headed this a way 'Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around He finds a sandbox like this to play. I wanna tell all you barroom roses If my sweet thang does happen by You'd better take my advice and if you blink more than twice You'd better have somethin' in your eye...
