Little Egypt - The Coasters/Elvis Presley and The Jordanaires/Lee Curtis/The Downliners Sect/Harpo

Little Egypt

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".
