Ernest Tubb - Sweet Thang lyrics

rate me

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

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 *tomcattin'* around

He finds a sandbox like this to play

I wanna tell all you barroom *rosies* 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*

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

Well has anybody here see sweet thang...

You'd better take my advice...
