Sage Brush Sadie - Dorothy Shay-歌词

Sage Brush Sadie - Dorothy Shay

On the outskirts of our town

Lived a gal named Sadie Brown

They say she's making money by the peck

For this simple country maid

Landed on the Hit Parade

In a manner that we never did expect

Unlike any of her kin

She grew whiskers on her chin

And her sideburns caused the neighbors to remark

Through no effort of her own

Soon her beard became full-grown

Now they've got her on display in Central Park

They call her Sagebrush Sadie

The famous bearded lady

Her whiskers brought her riches and renown

They're the pride of the museum

And man it costs two bits to see them

And the family's getting rich on Sadie Brown

All the neighbors there about

Tried their best to figure out

Why she grew a set of whiskers but they can't

Both her sisters look like Ma

And the boys resemble Pa

But Sadie seems to favor General Grant

She started running round

With a barber in the town

And the feller seemed to have an awful crush

But it's easy to explain

Why she drove the man insane

'Cause Sadie's had the skin you love to brush

Her barber friend proposed

Just as everyone supposed

But the way he did it

Made her kind of vexed

He'd been married twice before

And the thing that made her sore

Was when he rode up to a gate

And hollered next

She consented with a smile

And he led her down the aisle

To the chapel where the morning glories bloom

But poor old Parson trapped

Couldn't get it figured out

So he shook hands with the bride

And kissed the groom

They call her Sagebrush Sadie

The famous bearded lady

She's happy that she's wed and settled down

For her little baby daughter

Has a mustache like an otter

She's the image of her mother Sadie Brown
