Streisand, Barbra - Sadie, Sadie Lyrics






[Act II opens with the newly wed Fanny and Nick
arriving at their home in Long Island. Fanny's
friends have prepared a surprise party for them.
Ziegfeld is there, hoping Fanny will be in his new
show; he's even hired her friend Eddie as dance
director. Fanny's Ziegfeld friends ask her what
it's like be married and she replies:]


[Fanny:]
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady,
Bow when I go by.
I'm a corporation now,
Not me, myself and I.
Oh how that marriage license works
On chambermaids and hotel clerks.
The honeymoon was such delight
That we got married that same night.
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady,
Still in bed at noon,
Racking my brain deciding
Between orange juice and prune.
Nick says nothing is too good for me,
And who am I not to agree?
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady, that's me!
[All:]
She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady,
[Fanny:]
Meet a mortgagee,
[All:]
The owner of an icebox
[Fanny:]
With a ten-year guarantee.
Oh, sit me in the softest seat,
Quick, a cushion for my feet.
Do for me, buy for me, lift me, carry me,
Finally got a guy to marry me!
I do my nails,
Read up on sales,
All day the records play.
Then he comes home, I tell him
Oy--what a day I had today!
I swear I'll do my wifely job,
Just sit at home--become a slob!
I'm Sadie, Sadie, married lady, that's me!
[All:]
She's Sadie, Sadie, married lady,
[Boys:]
Sadie, you did the trick.
[Fanny:]
It's nothing!
[Girls:]
Not ev'ry girl can get herself
A guy who looks like Nick.
[Fanny:]
Wait, to tell the truth, it hurt my pride--
The groom was prettier than the bride.
[All:]
Sadie, Sadie, married lady,
[Fanny:]
Husband, house, a mortgage, a baby,
[All:]
Sadie, Sadie, married lady,
[Fanny:]
That's who?
[All:]
That's you.
[Fanny:]
That's me--married lady.
[All:]
Say hello to Ziegfeld's married lady--Sadie!

  6. S.... T....

    The part where she opens the door to the nursery where the mural artists are painting inspired me to become a mural artist. This movie has to be one of my top ten faves.

  7. B.... L....

    I want this in my wedding video despite my future husband probably not bearing the name Nick Arnstein and me being a gay man.

    B.... L....

    Hahaha I love this.

  8. S.... ....

    50 Shades of Grey Part Zero(at least the money part)

  9. N.... D....

    I've always found this song and scene annoying, not sure why.

    N.... D....

    Yikes!! Why are you here?!
    SMDH!😦

    N.... D....

    You should investigate that selfish misfortune!

    Seriously, I think it's meant to be funny. Lighten up! It's not like Fanny couldn't do for herself . . . (and Nick!)
    I think it's about living your life with someone who adores you. Someone who makes you feel precious enough to daydream silly thoughts in this tough world.

  10. E.... R....

    This was my favorite part...
    (of the movie)...when I was a little girl ❤😊❤
    Now, it's almost twenty years later, and I still L❤VE IT!

  15. C.... N....

    Amazing that this was her first film. She is as accomplished a screen actress as many who have been in the business for decades.

    C.... N....

    That was why Audrey Hepburn got upset on an award she had to share the stage among a 26yr old Streisand. ,💓😄

    C.... N....

    KajunMs39 Katharine Hepburn, not Audrey.

  16. M.... ....

    That line "Mrs. Anstein, Mrs. Arnstein, what a beautiful, beautiful name" along with wedding bells --- literally my life every time I fall in love with someone, find out his name and imagine our future together without even talking to him. :D

    M.... ....

    MadViolist Omg I SO relate lolol

    M.... ....

    Lmao you made my day, same here XD

  17. A.... N....

    Love the movie love her live everything about her. , her voice amazing her a makeup on point so is her style and hair , like good job to Barbra and good job to the this movie for being so damn good

  18. c.... ....

    finally a Barbra song where the comments aren't about that glee girl

    c.... ....

    I know!!

    c.... ....

    You have to got to the songs that she didn't perform on glee just to not have comments of her

  19. A.... D....

    How he slid in with that pillow tho lol

    A.... D....

    Good point!

    Omar is so Agile, Handsome & Gorgeous. Their is something in his voice and eyes that reminds me of Freddie Mercury.

  20. B.... S....

    Them dragon lady nails.

    B.... S....

    And, your point 💅 is?

  21. m.... a....

    omar  sharif good man and performer star

  22. S.... S....

    This song is good.

  23. W.... B....

    I believe this is my favorite song of the whole musical.

  24. J.... C....

    I was around 10 years old when this movie came out and my mother took me to see at the beautiful Egyptian Theater in Hollywood.  I have always loved this movie and my little Corgi girl is name Sadie for this song.  Ah.... Love Funny Girl!

    J.... C....

    Back in the 70's my Chihuahua, I named
    Fanny Streisand Brice. The vet loved it!

  25. T.... ....

    who is Sadie in this song Streisand is singing about?

    T.... ....

    That's adorable!
    Please sing this for them on their wedding or engagement celebration, that would just be the sweetest thing!

    T.... ....

    "Sadie" was a neighbor gal who got married w/all the traditional trappings, all of which Fannie envied, & feared she'd never have for herself...so Fannie always related "being married" to "being a SADIE"!

    T.... ....

    Me? Just kidding although my name in Sadye said the same way as Sadie. :)

    T.... ....

    My grandpa sung this to me when I got married lol

    T.... ....

    Sadie is married (daughter of her Mother's friend?) and she is married to a Dentist. Fanny (Barbra) is impressed with her lifestyle.

    Who's in the beginning of the movie

  26. J.... ....

    I adore her in this movie!!

  27. J.... B....

    One of Streisand's best!

  28. T.... H....

    Such an amazing singer!
