You just come to sit right down
Sally came to town on a hot summer Saturday night
Looking for a part in a movie called "The House Of Delights"
And everybody said you've got the looks girl but you can't act
There's a place on the boulevard for girls if you know how to dance
So she danced! Like no other
A wild cat ready to strike
When she danced! She wore nothing
But the colors of the hot burning lights
Sally got a break after dancing just a few short years
When a man from the motion picture business said, "You're it my dear."
Now Sally's fame spread and her movies brought the houses on down
A girl from Kansas City, Missouri, went from nothing
To the talk of the town
And she danced! Like no other
A wild cat ready to strike
When she danced! She was something
Godiva, Goddess, Venus of Night
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah!
Ow!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah yeah yeah
Sally you've gone farther than most girls ever have
Sally you've got something that could sure enough break a man
Broadway Sally, Golden Girl, burning with a passion
On the screens that you lived
Goodtime Sally, showed the world, nobody did it better
When you stepped into your shoes and danced
Ow! Ow!
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Sally soon vanished but the masses will remember her name
'Cause Sally's star shines on the sidewalk of prominent fame
She could dance! Like no other
A wild cat ready to strike
When she danced! She wore nothing
But the colors of the hot burning lights, yeah yeah
She could dance! Like no other
A wild cat ready to strike
When she danced! She was something
Godiva, Goddess, Venus of Night, yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah
Sally you've gone farther than most girls ever have, woo!
Sally you've got something that could sure enough break a man
Broadway Sally, Golden Girl, burning with a passion
On the screens that you lived
Goodtime Sally, showed the world, nobody did it better
When you stepped into your shoes and danced
No no no no no Sally
Sally
Tears don't stop
Sally
Yeah, that's just the way she is
When she danced, she was gone
My girl Sally
My girl Sally
My heart got tired, Sally
Sally
