[1st verse:]
|
One fine day on Broadway
|
Simple Sally Brown
|
Met a trav'ling salesman who was trav'ling around
|
"Howdy do, how are you?
|
Let's go see the town"
|
Sally answered, "What a pity
|
I would like to but the city
|
Folks would talk, they would talk, you know that they can
|
But I'd like to know you better, Mister Trav'ling Man
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
When you're in town, in my home town
|
Look me up, look me up
|
I'll be happy to see you
|
When you're passing my way, drop in and stay
|
If you'll come, you're welcome as flowers in May
|
And you can hang your samples on a sour apple tree
|
And I'll see that no one's around
|
For I'd much rather walk where the neighbors don't talk
|
When in town call around, goodbye
|
|
[2nd verse:]
|
Sally Brown settled down
|
Wed her trav'ling man
|
He said, "Dearie, I'll be home as much as I can"
|
Trav'ling men, now and then
|
Get a telegram
|
Their employer sends a wire
|
"Go and see a certain buyer"
|
Looking 'round, Sally found in her hubby's coat
|
Seven diff'rent notes that seven diff'rent females wrote
|
