Sneakin’ Sally Thru the Alley - Robert Palmer

Sneakin' Sally through the alley

Trying to keep her out of sight

Sneakin' Sally through the alley

When up pops the wife

I said, "I can't find nothing wrong with being friends

'Coz sometimes she lets me use the car"

She said,"If you can't find nothing wrong with your mind

You better, you better find something wrong with her, her"

So I began to try to explain

That it just wasn't, just wasn't what she thought

I'd better find something to do with my time

The fact is I've just been caught

Sneakin' Sally through the alley

Trying to get away clean

Sneakin' Sally through the alley

When up pops the queen

Trying to double talk, get myself in trouble talk

Catching myself in lies, catch myself in lies

Mama just looked at me as if I was crazy

She didn't even bat an eye

So I began to try to explain

That it just wasn't, just wasn't what she thought

I'd better find something to do with my time

The fact is just been caught, just been caught

Sneakin', sneakin', sneakin'

Sneakin' Sally through the alley

Sneakin' Sally through the alley

I'm trying to get away clean

Sneakin' through the alley with Sally

When up pops the queen

Sneakin' through the alley with Sally

Sneakin' Sally through the alley
