[verse 1]

Sally, Sally – come in and see

What I’ve built here for ya

I’m sorry Sally, I know Texas was mean

But now I’m here for ya

You’re gone now, from that house

It’s time now for sleep

I know you’re missin’ all of your friends

Well, maybe in dreams, maybe in dreams..

[Chorus]

I ain’t got a big song to sing

I’m fairly sure you wouldn’t care if I did

You just rest now, girl – you got the weight of the world

On your shoulders, wish I could hold ya, ooooh

It’s on ya shoulders, wish I could hold ya, ooooh

[verse 2]

Sally, Sally, won’t you tell me

What did this man do to ya?

Meathooks and blood, hammers and guts

I know that you’re weary

You can rest now in my arms

They can’t get you no more

I know you’re missin’ all of your friends

Well, maybe in dreams, maybе in dreams..

[Chorus]

I ain’t got a big song to sing

I’m fairly sure you wouldn’t care if I did

You just rеst now, girl – you got the weight of the world

On your shoulders, wish I could hold ya, ooooh

It’s on ya shoulders, wish I could hold ya, ooooh

[bridge]

It’s the dead of night, on a Texas plain

And I’m sure I heard, I saw a saw on a chain

I heard a thousand screams, and a million tears

I heard my neighbours say, don’t you come ‘round here

‘cause ‘round here, we got a graveyard full

And ‘round here, we don’t play around none

I hear a thousand screams, and a million tears

I’d say, don’t you come ‘round here…

[Chorus]

I ain’t got a big song to sing

I’m fairly sure you wouldn’t care if I did

You just rest now, girl – you got the weight of the world

On your shoulders, wish I could hold ya, ooooh

It’s on ya shoulders, wish I could hold ya, ooooh
