C                  G
Sadie the cleaning lady
     G                                  C    
With trusty scrubbing brush and pail of water
           F                           C                A7
Worked her fingers to the bone for the life she had at home
    D7                              G7
Providing at the same time for her daughter

   C                  G
Ah Sadie the cleaning lady
    G                             C
Her aching knee's not getting any younger
         F                            C                 A7
Well her red detergent hands have for years not held a mans
    D7                                   G7
And time would find her hard in spite of hunger

           C                                Dm7
Scrub your floors, do your chores, dear old Sadie
         G7                                 C
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
          C                         Dm7
Can't afford to get bored, dear old Sadie
         G7                                 C         G#7
Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady

    C#                 G#
Ah, Sadie the cleaning lady
    G#                              C#
Her female mind would find a way of trapping
          F#                        C#           A#7
Though as gentle as a lamb, Sam the elevator man
   D#7                             G#7
So she could spend the night by TV napping

Her Sam was what she got for crying and singing
       G#                           D#                C7
To her solo and dismay, she's still working til this day
    F7                           A#7
Her Sam turned out to be another singer

Looks as though you'll always be a cleaning lady
