Sadie The Cleaning Lady

	  		C        G 

C                  G 
Sadie the cleaning lady 
     G                                  C     
With trusty scrubbing brush and pail of water 
           F                           C                A7 
Worked her fingers to the bone for the life she had at home 
    D7                              G7 
Providing at the same time for her daughter 

   C                  G 
Ah Sadie the cleaning lady 
    G                             C 
Her aching knee's not getting any younger 
         F                            C                 A7 
Well her red detergent hands have for years not held a mans 
    D7                                   G7 
And time would find her hard in spite of hunger 

           C                                Dm7 
Scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie 
         G7                                 C 
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady 
          C                         Dm7 
Can't afford to get bored, dear old Sadie 
         G7                                 C         G#7 
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady 

    C#                 G# 
Ah, Sadie the cleaning lady 
    G#                              C# 
Her female mind would find a way of trapping 
          F#                        C#           A#7 
Though as gentle as a lamb, Sam the elevator man 
   D#7                             G#7 
So she could spend the night by TV napping 

Violin Solo: 
C#   D#m7   G#7   C# 
C#   D#m7   G#7   C#   A 

    D   N.C. 
Ah, Sadie the cleaning lady 

Her aching knee's not getting any younger 

Well, her red detergent hands have for years not held a mans 

And time would find her hard in spite of hunger 

               D                                Em7 
Ah, scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie 
         A7                                 D 
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady 
         D                         Em7 
Can't afford to get bored dear old Sadie 
          A7                                D       A#7 
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady 

    D#                 A# 
Ah, Sadie the cleaning lady 
    A#                                  D# 
Her Sam was what she got for crying and singing 
       G#                           D#                C7 
To her solo and dismay, she's still working til this day 
    F7                           A#7 
Her Sam turned out to be another singer 

               D#                               Fm7 
Ah, scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie 
         A#7                                D# 
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady 
        D#                         Fm7 
Can't afford to get bored dear old Sadie 
         A#7                                D# 
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
