Robert Palmer - Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley lyrics
Artist: Robert Palmer
album: The Very Best Of The Island Years
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Trying to keep her out of sight
Sneakin' sally through the alley
When up pops the wife
I said, ah I can't find nothing wrong with being friends cos sometimes
She lets me use the car
She said if you can't find nothing wrong with your mind
You'd better, you'd 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 oh
I'd better find something to do with my time
The fact is oh I've just been caught
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Trying to get away clean
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Oh, when up pops the queen
Trying to double talk, get myself in trouble talk, catching myself in lies
Catching myself in lies
Mama just looked at me as if I was, ah, crazy
And didn't even bat an eye
So I began to try to explain, that it just wasn't, just wasn't what she thought oh
I'd better find something to do with my time
The fact is aaaah just been caught,
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Just been caught,
Oh, oh, Sneakin, sneakin, sneakin,
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Trying to get away clean
Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally
Oh, when up pops the queen
Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally
Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally
Trying to keep her out of sight
Sneakin' sally through the alley
When up pops the wife
I said, ah I can't find nothing wrong with being friends cos sometimes
She lets me use the car
She said if you can't find nothing wrong with your mind
You'd better, you'd 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 oh
I'd better find something to do with my time
The fact is oh I've just been caught
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Trying to get away clean
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Oh, when up pops the queen
Trying to double talk, get myself in trouble talk, catching myself in lies
Catching myself in lies
Mama just looked at me as if I was, ah, crazy
And didn't even bat an eye
So I began to try to explain, that it just wasn't, just wasn't what she thought oh
I'd better find something to do with my time
The fact is aaaah just been caught,
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Just been caught,
Oh, oh, Sneakin, sneakin, sneakin,
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Sneakin' sally through the alley
Trying to get away clean
Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally
Oh, when up pops the queen
Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally
Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally
