Sweet Thang Lyrics - Jimmy Dean

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 seen sweet thang? 

I got a notion, he'd be headed this way 

'Cause when my sweet thang's out, tomcattin' around 

Finds a sandbox like this, to play 

I wanna warn all you bar room 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 pay-day 

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 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 seen sweet thang?
