Sali’s Song lyrics

Sali went down, she went down
Gonna meet the devil dancer
Ooh how can it be?

Me and my girl, we had a quarrel
Didn't see you today, but I'll see you tomorrow
Ooh how can it be?

Well, run and tell your ma, run and tell your pa
That things aren't like the way they are
It's such a cruel and evil world to put an end to a golden girl
Well, oh my Lord, how can it be?

Sali went down, she went down
Gonna meet the maker ?
Ooh how can it be?

It's enough to make the devil cry
Throw the night out of the sky
You call the wolves, but the wolves don't come
Now how we gonna live with the deed we've done
Oh my Lord, how can it be?

The Earth stood still
The Earth stood still
Stood and stared, it didn't do anything
The Earth stood still
The Earth stood still
Stood and stared, it didn't do anything
Nothing makes sense now
Nothing makes sense now
Everything's upside-down
Nothing makes sense now
Nothing makes sense now
Everything's been turned around

No, God, are you listening to me now?
I can never forgive you for this deed you let go down

Sali went down, she went down
Gonna meet the devil dancer
Ooh how can it be?

Well, run and tell your ma, run and tell your pa
That things aren't right the way they are
And don't you laugh and don't you cry
'Cause you'll be an angel by and by
By and by, how can it be?

Sali went down, she went down
