D                                                             A
Sally used to carry my friends to school, Sally was a big old girl
                                                                D
Did all my homework 'cause I was a fool, Sally was a good old girl
    
When I wanted a kiss or a little bitty squeeze 
G
Sally's always willin' and she did her best to please
   A
A girl made to love and not made to tease
                      D
Sally was a good old girl


CHORUS:
D                                                A
Sally was a good old girl, Sally was a good old girl

No matter what the request, Sally gave it her best
                       D
Sally was a good old girl


SOLO


Well her folks was poor but she helped all she could, Sally was a good old girl
Hardest workin' woman in the neighborhood, Sally was a good old girl
She walked up and down the streets all day
Sellin' neck ties to the ones who would pay
If you didn't have the money then she'd give 'em away
Sally was a good old girl


CHORUS


She was a favorite of all the men, Sally was a good old girl
All the girls despised her then, Sally was a good old girl
Women talked about her, Sally didn't care
She kept on a-workin' and doin' her share
She wound up married to a millionaire
Sally was a good old girl


CHORUS (2x)
