Sally, Sally
Don’t ever wander
Away from the alley and me
Sally, Sally
Marry me Sally
And happy forever I’ll be
When skies are blue
You’re beguiling
And when they’re grey
You’re still smiling, smiling
Sally, Sally
Pride of our alley
You’re more than
The whole world to me
The skies were blue
When I met you, Sally
You were my gal
My little pal, so true
You came along
Made life a song, Sally
If I lost you
I wonder what I’d do
Sally, Sally
Don’t ever wander
Away from the alley and me
Sally, Sally
Marry me Sally
And happy forever I’ll be
When skies are blue
You’re beguiling
And when they’re grey
You’re still smiling, smiling
Sally, Sally
Pride of our alley
You’re more than
The whole world to me
She performed this song in the movie ‘Sally in our Alley’. In her 1960 autobiography, she recalls that she thought the song was a number written for a man to sing.
