Sweet Thang Lyrics - Dottie West

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 want to 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...
