From the recording Living on a Volcano
Lyrics
Sadie
I’m not the kind of man
who makes friends easy
I keep to myself
but it was different with Sadie
She smiled and said
she was real pleased to meet me
we laughed and drank
then she leaned in to kiss me
Me and Sadie shared my bed before too long
brother there was comfort in her arms
my lunch she’d fix
with a love note hid somewhere
when I come tired
my Sadie, she’d be there
she’d smile and say
it was real good to see me
we’d laugh and drink
then she’d lean in to kiss me
Brother I’ve had some good love in the past
me and Sadie said it would last
Sadie didn’t say
why she left
just disappeared one day
like the smoke from her cigarette
now she may be the kind
who just needs to be free
it may just be something missing in me
Sadie, I’ll remember you all my years
way past the end of this trail of tears
Sadie, I’ll remember you all my years
way past the end of this trail of tears
