Little Sadie, now -- a song that has really done the rounds. The version I sing is an amalgamation of my own from renderings by Hedy West & Doc Watson; to two different tunes & stanza forms: one a straight four-liner [Doc Watson's I think],

I went out last night and I made my rounds
I met Little Sadie and I shot her down
Then I went back home and went to bed
44-pistol under my head

& a line - repeat line - final line [Hedy West]

Went out last night & I made my rounds
Sez went out last night & I made my rounds
   Sez I met little Sadie & I blowed her down

-- very effective with Hedy's characteristic ostinato banjo technique.

Sometimes I use one tune, sometimes the other; or alternate tune & stanza form...
