Sally Lyrics

1, 2, 3
And I woke up early this morning and I went to the 5 and dime
I saw this pretty young lady that was real, real fine
I tapped her on the shoulder and said, "Mmm, mmm, excuse me, ma′am"
She pulled down her pants and said, "Splack these hams"

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sally "That Girl"
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sally, whew, "That Girl"

So we walked her to her house, as she opened up the door
It was heart-shaped bed in the middle of the floor
She pushed me on the bed and this you can bet
In between her legs was real, real wet
So I grabbed her by her thighs and I moved up truly
She jumped off the bed and said, "Don't touch my booty"
"Don′t touch my booty 'cause I won't touch you"
"Don′t touch my booty ′cause it's not the thing to do"

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sally, whew, "That Girl"
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sally, whew, "That Girl"

So we bailed out her house just to get something to eat
We saw her friend named Patty walkin′ down the street
Patty turned around as we yelled out her name
She dropped to her knee and began to sing

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sally, whew, "That Girl"
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sally, whew, "That Girl"

Sally is a girl that likes to play
And if you want some lovin' Sally is okay
She has a different fellow every day of the week
Two or maybe three just to make it sweet
Sally wants a man she can call her own
And sixty-seven hundred she can call on the phone
Sally′s never tired and she's never alone
All Sally wants is a fellow with a room

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Sally's Song I'm That Girl" describe the singer's encounter with a woman named Sally, who is portrayed as promiscuous and sexually liberated. The singer meets Sally at a 5 and dime, where he finds her attractive and attempts to chat her up. Sally, however, responds with a surprising sexual proposition, which the singer seems to be intrigued by. Together, they go to Sally's house, where she initiates sex, but then suddenly changes her mind and asks the singer not to touch her booty. Sally's friend Patty makes an appearance towards the end of the song, but her role seems peripheral and insignificant.


The song appears to be a commentary on a society's perception of sexually liberated women, like Sally. She is portrayed as being in control of her own sexuality, which is seen as a threat and challenge to traditional gender roles and societal expectations. However, the song also seems to objectify Sally, reducing her to a sexual object, rather than treating her like a human being with agency and desires of her own. It is worth noting that the lyrics are written from a male perspective and depict male fantasies and desires, rather than providing an accurate portrayal of a female experience.
