Loretta Lynn - Sweet Thang Lyrics
I slipped out of the house about sundown
While mama was a washin' her hair
And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come lookin' for me
When she finds that I'm not there.
I know there'll be the devil to pay
She'll come blowin' like a cyclone right through that door
And I can hear exactly what she'll say.
Well, has anybody here see sweet thang
I got a notion he'll be headed this a way
'Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around
He finds a sandbox like this to play.
I wanna tell all you barroom roses
You'd better take my advice and if you'll blink more than twice
You'd better have somethin' in your eyes.
I gave my baby all my money on payday
Except a little she don't know that I got
'Cause there's a cute little waitress at the corner cafe
And she seems to like me quite a lot.
While we were sittin' in the back booth a havin' a talk
She believed in every word that I said
When the door blew open, Loretta walked in
Yellin' loud enough to wake the dead.
Well, has anybody here see sweet thang
I got a notion he'll be headed this a way
'Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around
He finds a sandbox like this to play.
You'd better take my advice...

Loretta Lynn Sweet Thang Comments
I caught Sweet Thang out one too many times and divorced him.
I have totally loved these two fine artists version of this song ever since I was 12 years old. Now, I surley ain't gonna reveal my birth year to ya, but I will tell that's a lot a years!
AWESOME MUSIC RIGHT HERE
💗🎶🎸🎶💗
Don't care for Nat Stucklys version, not sure which one is first
1.25 speed is pretty good
You better not cross Loretty.

Sindatuk Jon Ulama III amen
I slipped out of the house about sundown
While mama was a washin' her hair
And you can bet your bottom dollar she'll come lookin' for me
When she finds that I'm not there.
And if she catches her sweet thang runnin' around
I know there'll be the devil to pay
She'll come blowin' like a cyclone right through that door
And I can hear exactly what she'll say.
Well, has anybody here see sweet thang
I got a notion he'll be headed this a way
'Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around
He finds a sandbox like this to play.
I wanna tell all you barroom roses
If my sweet thang does have a bite
You'd better take my advice and if you'll blink more than twice
You'd better have somethin' in your eyes.
I gave my baby all my money on payday
Except a little she don't know that I got
'Cause there's a cute little waitress at the corner cafe
And she seems to like me quite a lot.
While we were sittin' in the back booth a havin' a talk
She believed in every word that I said
When the door blew open, Loretta walked in
Yellin' loud enough to wake the dead.
Well, has anybody here see sweet thang
I got a notion he'll be headed this a way
'Cause when my sweet thang is out tomocattin' around
He finds a sandbox like this to play.
You'd better take my advice...
Thanks, my style!!🎸🎸
