Sally Simpson (Demo)

Outside the house Mr.

Simpson announced That

Sally couldn't go to the meeting

He went on cleaning his blue

Rolls Royce And she ran inside weeping

She got to her room, and tears splashed the picture

Of the new Messiah She picked up the book of her father's life

And threw it on the fire [Chorus]

She knew from the start

Deep down in her heart

That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her mother said, "Never mind, your part

Is to be what you'll be."

The theme of the sermon was 'Come unto me,

Love will find a way',

So Sally decided to ignore her dad

And sneak out anyway

She spent all afternoon getting ready

And decided she'd try to touch him

Maybe he'd see that she was free

And talk to her this

Sunday [Chorus] She arrived at six, and the place was swinging

To gospel music by nine

Group after group appeared on the stage

And Sally just sat there crying

She bit her nails, looking pretty as a picture

Right in the very front row

And then a DJ wearing a blazer with a badge

Ran on and said, "Here we go!"

The crowd went crazy

As Tommy hit the stage

Little Sally got lost as the police bossed

The crowd back in a rage
