Lately I have slowed down
I've been looking around
It's gotten clear that I need to find
Some solid ground
Well I don't care too much for money
Darling neither do you
cnd after all
There ain't too much we stand to lose

I've played the game the best I could
cnd I had my fun
But in the end it's never enough
So don't tell no one
But I've packed every inch of the getaway car
For some place new
cnd I've been saving shotgun
For you

Sadie, won't you stay with me forever
Sadie, won't you stay
Sadie, won't you stay with me forever
Oh won't you stay

Through the cold wind and rain
You didn't doubt a thing
Standing tall through the darkest night
That road could bring
Well the sun might set in the rearview mirror
cll orange and red
But in the morning
It's gonna rise over those mountains ahead

Sadie, won't you stay with me forever
Sadie, won't you stay
cnd maybe, if we stick it out together
We'll find our way

Sadie, lead the way to our heaven
Sadie, lead the way
cnd maybe, in the midst of my endeavor
You're not all that far away...

Sadie, won't you stay with me forever
Sadie, won't you stay
My lady, you'll remain forever
So won't you stay
