Sneakin' Sally through the alley
Sneakin' Sally through the alley
Sneakin' Sally through the alley, tryin' to keep her out of sight
Sneakin' Sally through the alley , when up pops the wife.
Well I can't find nothing wrong with
being friends 'cause sometimes she lets me use the car
If you can't find nothing wrong with
your mind, you better find something wrong with her
E A E
Cause I began to try to explain
D A E
But it just wasn't.. just wasn't what it seemed
B E D E>D>B>E E>D>B>E
I better find somethin' to do with my time
Fact is I just been seen!
Sneakin' through the alley with Sally
.. ??
Jam
Sneakin' Sally through the alley
trying to get away clean
Sneakin' Sally through the alley
when up pops the queen.
Tryin to talk double talk, get-myself-in-trouble-talk
Catchin' myself in lies,
Catch myself in lies.
Momma just looked at me just like I was Crazy
She didn't bat an eye
Cause I began to try to explain
That it just wasn't .. just , just wasn't what it seemed
Now I better find somethin' to do with
my time, fact is, Ohhhhhh, just been caught!
Just been caught!
Sneakin' through the alley with Sally
