I hate to have to tell you about he news
It seems like no one else has got the heart
You must have been away a little while
Now I don't know where to start
Everybody knew that Sadie loved you
Everybody loved to hear her sing
That's why no one wants to say
What happened on that day
I guess you'll have to keep that diamond ring
Don't bother coming don't bother calling
Don't bother waiting at the door
Don't bother listening don't bother looking
Sadie won't be singing anymore
No one thought to tell her not to go
She had been to town so many times before
Over Thompson bridge and the river down below
Why it had to be that very moment
The timbers had suddenly given way
No one was around
It was later that we found her body in the water cold and grey
Don't bother coming don't bother calling
Don't bother waiting at the door
Don't bother listening don't bother looking
Sadie won't be singing anymore
