Johnny Mosby - Sweet Thang Lyrics

I slipped out of the house about sundown while mama was a washin' her hair
And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll be lookin' for me
When she finds that I'm not there
And if she catches her sweet thang out running around
I know there'll be the debit to pay
She'll come blowin' like a cyclone through that door
And I can hear exactly what she'll say

Well has anybody here see my sweet thang I had a notion he was headed this way
Cause when my sweet thang's out tomocattin' around
He finds a sandbox like this to play
I wanna tell all you barroom roses now if my sweet thang should happen by
You'd better take a mom's advice if you'll blink more than twice
You'd better have something in your eyes

Now she takes all my money on payday except a little she don't know I got
Cause there's a sweet little waitress at the corner cafe
Who seems to like me quite a lot
Now we're sittin' in the back booth just a havin' a talk
She's hangin' on every word that I said
Well when the door blew open Lord and mama walked in
Yellin' loud enough to wake the dead

Oh well has anybody here see my sweet thang...
You'd better take all my advice if you'll blink more than twice
You'd better have something in your eyes
