Letra da Música Sweet Thang de Nat Stuckey

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 a looking for me
When she finds that I'm not there
And if she catches her sweet thang running around
I know there'll be the debit to pay
She'll come blowin' like a cyclone through that door
And I can hear exactly what she'll say

Well has anybody here seen sweet thang
I got a notion he'll be headed this way
Cause when my sweet thang's out tomocattin' around
He finds a sandbox like this to play
I wanna tell all you barroom roses if my sweet thang does have a bite
You'd better take my advice and if you'll blink more than twice
You'd better have somethin' in your eyes

[ guitar ]
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 down at the corner cafe
And she seems to like me quite a lot
Well we were sittin' in this back booth a havin' a talk
And she's believing in every word that I said
When that door blew open and mama walked in
Yellin' loud enough to wake the dead

Well has anybody here see my sweet thang
I got a notion he'd be headed this way
Cause when my sweet thang's out tomocattin' around
He finds a sandbox like this to play
I wanna tell all you cafe cuties if my sweet thang should have a bite
You'd better take mom's advice if you'll blink more than twice
You'd better have somethin' in your eyes
Yes you take all mom's advice if you'll blink more than twice
You'd better have somethin' in your eyes
