Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley Lyrics - Working In A Coalmine - Lee Dorsey

Sneakin' Sally through the alley 

Tryin' to keep her out of sight 

Sneakin' Sally through the alley 

When up pops the wife 

I said, "I can't find nothing wrong with being friends 

'Cause sometimes she lets me use the car" 

She said, "If you can't find nothing wrong with your mind 

You better, you better find something wrong with her, her" 

So I began to try to explain 

That it just wasn't, just wasn't what she thought 

I'd better find something to do with my time 

The fact is I've just been caught 

Sneakin' Sally through the alley 

Tryin' to get away clean 

Sneakin' Sally through the alley 

When up pops the queen 

Tryin' to double talk, get myself in trouble talk 

Catchin' myself in lies, catch myself in lies 

Mama just looked at me as if I was crazy 

She didn't even bat an eye 

So I began to try to explain 

That it just wasn't, just wasn't what she thought 

I'd better find something to do with my time 

The fact is just been caught, just been caught 

Sneakin', sneakin', sneakin' 

Sneakin' Sally through the alley 

Sneakin' Sally through the alley 

I'm tryin' to get away clean 

Sneakin' through the alley with Sally 

When up pops the queen 

Sneakin' through the alley with Sally 

Sneakin' Sally through the alley
