I met her when we were in high school
and I loved the way
she danced across the football field,
in the rain, the middle of the game.
They made her leave and she flailed
and she sang and she twirled
and I saw she had no other place to go.

Chorus
Sally I love you and Sally I know.
Sally I miss you and Sally come home.
Sally I need you and Sally I say.
Sally I love you and Sally please stay.

And if you ever saw her you might think
that she looked kind of strange
and that her words
are not the kind of things you say
in this refined little town
on the East Coast of the country.
And if you ever see her
will you send her my way.

Chorus

He never should have told her
she's a whore
and that she had no place in his house
and in his life and she should go.
And then he handed her the money
and she took it as a hint
to leave this town and me and more.
Oh Sally where are you.

Chorus
