Please can anyone help me with the lyrics of the song "Sadie" ?
Sadie, Sadie, Oh what a lady. Sadie, Sadie Oh what a girl etc.
The song comes from an album called: Black Mountain Rag

Lyrics are in the database.

I can find the lyrics to Doc's version of "Little Sadie" at cowboy lyrics.com,but they don't contain the phrase given above. The song on Black Mountain Rag is just called "Sadie", .    "Black Mountain Rag" is a compilation from three albums he and Merle recorded for FlyingFish. I was moving fast, but I didn't find a song called "Sadie" on any of those threem and wonder if it was retitled.

SADIE
As sung by Doc & Merle Watson on "Black Mountain Rag"

High on the hill sits a whippoorwill
Singin' out his old lonesome song.
Is it he or, I wonder, is it me?
For I've been away from Sadie too long.

CHORUS: Sadie, Sadie, oh, what a lady
Sadie, Sadie, oh, what a girl
Sadie, Sadie, oh, what a lady
Sadie, Sadie, Sadie, you're my world.

(break)

Oh, the scent of your hair and your pretty face so fair
Haunt me when I'm away from you
And those pretty eyes that say "I'll love you every day"
Turnin' all my stormy skies to blue. CHORUS

(break)

While the moon shines bright, will you meet me tonight
Under that old lonesome pine?
And I'll ask you till you tell me that you will
And that you'll forever be mine. CHORUS

- think it's written by T. Michael Coleman

Current attribution is "T. Michael Coleman / Bob Hilliard" but the record Red Rocking Chair says "Coleman-Hill".

Doc. Watson mentions it was written by Coleman, before singing it.
