Sally
1931LYRICS
Sally, Sally
Don't ever wander
Away from the alley and me
Sally, Sally
Marry me Sally
And happy forever I'll be
When skies are blue
You're beguiling
And when they're grey
You're still smiling, smiling
Sally, Sally
Pride of our alley
You're more than
The whole world to me
The skies were blue
When I met you, Sally
You were my gal
My little pal, so true
You came along
Made life a song, Sally
If I lost you
I wonder what I’d do
Sally, Sally
Don't ever wander
Away from the alley and me
Sally, Sally
Marry me Sally
And happy forever I'll be
When skies are blue
You're beguiling
And when they're grey
You're still smiling, smiling
Sally, Sally
Pride of our alley
You're more than
The whole world to me
SONG NOTES
In this recording, British vocalist Gracie Fields pines for a beguiling local woman she wishes to marry. She performed this song in the movie Sally in our Alley and it became the signature song of her career. In her 1960 autobiography Sing as We Go, she recalls that when she first heard it, she thought the lyrics would have been more suitable for a man to sing.
