Paul Harrison sings Little Sadie. Live at Tuesday at the Tap
“Little Sadie” is a 20th-century American folk ballad written in Dorian mode. It has variously been known by other titles such as “Bad Lee Brown,” “Cocaine Blues,” “Transfusion Blues,” “East St. Louis Blues,” “Late One Night,” and “Penitentiary Blues.” The song tells the story of a man who is apprehended after shooting a woman, often portrayed as his wife or girlfriend, and subsequently sentenced by a judge

The earliest written record of the song dates back to 1922. This lyric fragment, transcribed in Joplin, Missouri, is noted in the 1948 book “Ozark Folksongs, Vol. II” #acousticcover #americana #folkmusic #tuesdayatthetap #openmic #countrymusic #stjohnshotelhull
