Sally Was a Good Old Girl - Trini Lopez

Sally used to carry

My books to school

(Sally was a good old girl)

Helped me with my homework

Cause I was a fool

(Sally was a good old girl)

If you wanted a kiss

Or a little bit of squeeze

She was always willing

And do her best to please

A girl made to love

And not made to tease

(Sally was a good old girl)

Sally was a good old girl

Sally was a good old girl

No matter what the request

She gave it her best

Sally was a good old girl

Now her folk was poor

And she helped all she could

(Sally was a good old girl)

The hardest working girl

In the neighborhood

(Sally was a good old girl)

Now she walked up and down

The street all day

Selling neckties

To the one who’d pay

They couldn’t afford it So she’d give em away

(Sally was a good old girl)

She was a favorite

With all the men

(Sally was a good old girl)

And all those women

Despised her then

(Sally was a good old girl)

All the girls talked of Sally

But Sally didn’t care

She kept on working

And doing her share

She wind up married

To a millionaire

(Sally was a good old girl)

Sally portava

I miei libri a scuola

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

Mi ha aiutato con i compiti

Perché sono stato uno stupido

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

Se volevi un bacio

O un po' di spremitura

Era sempre disponibile

E fai del suo meglio per compiacere

Una ragazza fatta per amare

E non fatto per stuzzicare

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

Sally era una brava ragazza

Sally era una brava ragazza

Non importa quale sia la richiesta

Ha dato il meglio di sé

Sally era una brava ragazza

Ora la sua gente era povera

E lei ha aiutato tutto quello che poteva

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

La ragazza che lavora più duramente

Nel vicinato

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

Ora camminava su e giù

La strada tutto il giorno

Vendo cravatte

A colui che pagherebbe

Non potevano permetterselo quindi le avrebbe regalate

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

Era una preferita

Con tutti gli uomini

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

E tutte quelle donne

La disprezzavo allora

(Sally era una brava ragazza)

Tutte le ragazze hanno parlato di Sally

Ma a Sally non importava

Ha continuato a lavorare

E facendo la sua parte

Si è sposata

A un miliardario

(Sally era una brava ragazza)
