[Verse 1]
Went out last night just to take a little round
I met my little Sadie and I brought her down
I ran right home and I went to bed
With a .44 smokeless under my head
[Verse 2]
I began to think what a deed I done
I grabbed my head and I began to run
I made a good run but I run too slow
They overtook me down in Jericho
[Verse 3]
Standin’ on the corner as he's ringin' my bell
Up stepped the sheriff of Thomasville
He says, "Young man is your name Brown?
Remember you blowed little Sadie down?"
[Verse 4]
"Oh, yes sir my name is Lee
I murdered little Sadie in first degree"
"First degree and second degree
If you got any papers, will you serve them to me."
[Verse 5]
Well they took me downtown and they dressed me in black
They put me on a train and they sent me back
I had no one for to go my bail
They crammed me back into the county jail
Oh yes they did
