"Sadie, Sadie" lyrics
(from "Funny Girl" soundtrack)
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Bow when I go by
I'm a corporation now
Not me, myself and I
Oh how that marriage license works
On chambermaids and hotel clerks
The honeymoon was such delight
That we got married that same night
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Still in bed at noon
Racking my brain deciding
Between orange juice and prune
Nick says nothing is too good for me
And who am I not to agree?
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady, that's me!
She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Meet a mortgagee
The owner of an icebox
With a ten-year guarantee
Oh, sit me in the softest seat
Quick, a cushion for my feet
Do for me, buy for me, lift me, carry me
Finally got a guy to marry me!
I do my nails
Read up on sales
All day the records play
Then he comes home, I tell him
Oy--what a day I had today!
I swear I'll do my wifely job
Just sit at home--become a slob!
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady, that's me!
She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Sadie, you did the trick
It's nothing!
Not ev'ry girl can get herself
A guy who looks like nick
Wait, to tell the truth, it hurt my pride--
The groom was prettier than the bride
Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Husband, house, a mortgage, a baby
Sadie, Sadie, married lady
That's who?
That's you
That's me--married lady
Say hello to Ziegfeld's married lady--Sadie!
Bow when I go by
I'm a corporation now
Not me, myself and I
Oh how that marriage license works
On chambermaids and hotel clerks
The honeymoon was such delight
That we got married that same night
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Still in bed at noon
Racking my brain deciding
Between orange juice and prune
Nick says nothing is too good for me
And who am I not to agree?
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady, that's me!
She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Meet a mortgagee
The owner of an icebox
With a ten-year guarantee
Oh, sit me in the softest seat
Quick, a cushion for my feet
Do for me, buy for me, lift me, carry me
Finally got a guy to marry me!
I do my nails
Read up on sales
All day the records play
Then he comes home, I tell him
Oy--what a day I had today!
I swear I'll do my wifely job
Just sit at home--become a slob!
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady, that's me!
She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Sadie, you did the trick
It's nothing!
Not ev'ry girl can get herself
A guy who looks like nick
Wait, to tell the truth, it hurt my pride--
The groom was prettier than the bride
Sadie, Sadie, married lady
Husband, house, a mortgage, a baby
Sadie, Sadie, married lady
That's who?
That's you
That's me--married lady
Say hello to Ziegfeld's married lady--Sadie!
