Sally Went Down Lyrics

Sally never made it to the road
never saw the light
never even heard the train coming.
Sally always walked on the track
went where the rails took her
never thought to look back.
Sally thought that she was doing right
when she went home early
but she never saw the light
never heard the train coming
when it hit her in the back
and Sally went down.
Sally was your average sweet southern woman- every Sunday she'd fill her pew
-but she got caught where she
ought not to have been.
Now what's a girl like her going to do?
Sally didn't want to get involved with the scene before her.
Keeping time walking on the track,
maybe they would just ignore her.
So she kept her head down,
she didn't listen to the man implore her.
