Robert Palmer - Sneakin Sally Through The Alley lyrics

(alan toussaint)<br><br>Sneakin' sally through the alley<br>Sneakin' sally through the alley<br>Sneakin' sally through the alley<br>Trying to keep her out of sight<br>Sneakin' sally through the alley<br>When up pops the wife<br><br>I said, ah I can't find nothing wrong with being friends cos sometimes<br>She lets me use the car<br>She said if you can't find nothing wrong with your mind<br>You'd better find something wrong with her, her<br>So I began to explain ah that it wasn't just ah what she thought<br>I'd better find something to do with my time<br>The fact is I've just been caught<br><br>Sneakin' sally through the alley<br>Sneakin' sally through the alley<br>Trying to get away clean<br>Sneakin' sally through the alley<br>When up pops the queen<br><br>Trying to double talk, get myself in trouble talk, catching myself in lies<br>Catching myself in lies<br>Mama just looked at me as if I was, ah, crazy<br>And didn't even bat an eye<br>So I began to try to explain, ah that it just wasn't what she thought<br>I'd better find something to do with my time<br>The fact is ah just been caught, just been caught,<br>Sneakin, sneakin, sneakin,<br><br>Trying to talk doubletalk, get myself in trouble talk<br>Catching myself in lies, catching myself in lies<br>Mama just looked at me as if I was crazy<br>She didn't even bat an eye<br><br>Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally<br>Sneakin' sally through the alley with sally<br>Sneakin sally through the alley<br>Sneakin sally through the alley<br>Sneakin sally through the alley
