Soap Sally
[Intro]
There is a hollow way back in the hills
A hollow they call Smoke Valley
That's where a crazy witchy woman lives
A woman they call Soap Sally

[Verse 1]
Since she was a child, Sally wasn't right
She'd take off all her clothes, go dance out in the moonlight
Her mama and her papa nearly both went insane
Listen, let me tell you how she got that name

[Chorus]
Soap Sally (Soap Sally), she lives back in the woods
Soap Sally (Soap Sally), if she gets you, that ain't good
She'll catch you, she'll hex you, she'll tie you up with rope
Throw you in a boilin' cauldron, cook you into soap

[Post-Chorus]
Soap Sally (Soap Sally)
Soap Sally (Soap Sally)

[Verse 2]
Well, up in the mountains, so thе story goes
You set foot in Smoke Vallеy and Soap Sally knows
She'll jump out the bushes, she'll shock and surprise you
She'll do her naked dance and that will hypnotize you
[Chorus]
Soap Sally (Soap Sally), she lives back in the woods
Soap Sally (Soap Sally), if she gets you, that ain't good
She'll catch you, she'll hex you, she'll tie you up with rope
She'll throw you in a boilin' cauldron, cook you into soap

[Post-Chorus]
She's Soap Sally (Soap Sally)
Soap Sally (Soap Sally)

[Verse 3]
A young man from Atlanta, handsome in his prime
Walked into Smoke Valley back in 1999
Said he'd come to see Soap Sally, said it was a social call
They told him, "Man, that woman's crazy," he said, "Ha, ain't we all"

[Verse 4]
Well, he walked through the Valley callin' for that girl
She jumped out of the bushes and she began to whirl
He just took off all his clothes, stacked 'em in a pile
And they both started dancin', Lord, have mercy, it was wild

[Refrain]
Soap Sally (Soap Sally)

[Verse 5]
Well, you can see 'em sometimes when the moon is bright
Dancin' there together out in the moonlight
But stay out of Smoke Valley, that's my advice to you
Unless you're young and handsome and a little crazy too
[Chorus]
Soap Sally (Soap Sally), she lives back in the woods
Soap Sally (Soap Sally), if she gets you, that ain't good
She'll catch you, she'll hex you, she'll tie you up with rope
Throw you in a boilin' cauldron, cook you into soap

[Outro]
Soap Sally (Soap Sally)
