Sadie, Sadie

Lyrics

[FANNY] 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 [ENSEMBLE] She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady [FANNY] Meet a mortgagee [ENSEMBLE] The owner of an icebox [FANNY] 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 [ENSEMBLE] She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady [BOYS] Sadie, you did the trick [FANNY, spoken] It's nothing [GIRLS] Not every girl can get herself A guy who looks like Nick [FANNY, spoken] Wait [FANNY] To tell the truth, it hurt my pride The groom was prettier than the bride [ENSEMBLE] Sadie, Sadie, married lady [FANNY] Husband, house, a mortgage, a baby [ENSEMBLE] Sadie, Sadie, married lady [FANNY] That's who? [ENSEMBLE] That's you [FANNY] That's me, married lady [ENSEMBLE] Say hello to Ziegfeld's married lady, Sadie
