Dottie West Sweet Thang Lyrics

Sweet Thang Lyrics

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'll find that I'm not there



And if she catches her sweet thang slipping around



I know there'll be the debit to pay



Cause she'll come blowin' like a cyclone right through that door



And I hear exactly what she'll say



Well has anybody here see sweet thang I got a notion he'd be headed this way



Cause when my sweet thang's out tomocattin' around



Finds a sandbox like this to play



I wanna warn all you barroom roses if my sweet thang should have a bite



You'd better take my advice if you'll blink more than twice



You'd better have somethin' in your eyes



I gave my baby all my money on payday except a little she don't know that I
got



Cause there's a little cute waitress down at the corner cafe



And she seems to like me quite a lot



We were sittin' in the back booth just a havin' a chair



And she believed in every word that I said



When that door blew open and mama walked in yellin' loud enough to wake the
dead



And she said



Well has anybody here see sweet thang...
