Sally Was A Good Old Girl:Fats Domino.
This one just made the top 100 in '64 at #99.
Perhaps it was because so many others had done versions
of it, that it didn't go any higher.

#1.

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 just a kiss or a little bitty squeeze,

She was always willing to do her best to please.
                           
Girls were made to love and not made to tease,
                     
Sally was a good old girl.

CHORUS:
                                                     
Yeah, Sally was a good old girl, Sally was a good old girl.
    
No matter what the re..quest, she gave it her best.
                    
Sally was a good old girl.

#2.

Her folks were poor but she helped all she could.
                    
Sally was a good old girl.

Hardest working girl in the neighborhood.
                     
Sally was a good old girl.
  
She walked up and down the streets all day,

selling neckties to the ones who'd pay,
                                 
if they couldn't afford it, she'd give them away.
                    
Sally was a good old girl.

CHORUS:

#3.

Sally was a favorite with all of the men.
                           
Cause Sally was a good old girl.
    
And all the other girls despised her, then.
                    
Sally was a good old girl.

When they talked about her, Sally didn't care,

she kept on a workin' and doin' her share.
                                 
And she wound up and married to a millionare.
                          
Yeah! Sally was a good old girl.

CHORUS:

OUTRO:
                                
                          
Sally was a good old girl...
