| I went and bought myself a ticket and
|
| I sat down in the very first row, wo wo.
|
| They pulled the curtain but then when
|
| They turned the spotlight way down low, wo wo,
|
| Little Egypt came out strotting,
|
| Wearing nothing but a button and a bow, wo wo,
|
| Singing, «Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah''.
|
| She had a ruby on her tummy and
|
| A diamond big as Texas on her toe, wo wo.
|
| She let her hair down and
|
| She did the hoochie koochie real slow, wo wo,
|
| When she did her special number on a zebra skin,
|
| I thought she’d stop the show, wo wo,
|
| Singing, «Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah!».
|
| She did a triple somersault and when she hit the ground,
|
| She winked at the audience and then she turned around.
|
| She had a picture of a cowboy tattooed on her spine,
|
| Saying Phoenix, Arizona, nineteen forty-nine.
|
| Yeah, but let me tell you people,
|
| Little Egypt doesn’t dance there anymore, wo wo.
|
| She’s too busy mopping and
|
| A taking care of shopping at the store, wo wo.
|
| 'Cause we got seven kids and
|
| All day long they crawl around the floor, wo wo,
|
| Singing, «Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah! |
| Yeah yeah!» |
