We got one.
Come on.
I want to tell you all a story about a Huffer Valley widowed wife
who [C] had a teenage daughter who attended Huffer Valley Junior High.
Oh, I'm on camera.
Well, [G] her daughter came home one afternoon and didn't even stop to play.
And she [C] said, Mom, I got a note here from [D] the Huffer [G] Valley G.A.
Well, the note said, Mrs.
Johnson, you're wearing your dress is way too high.
[C] It's reported she's been drinking and running around with men and going wild.
He's married to one of my best friends.
[G] And Mrs.
Baker, can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town?
[C] And shouldn't Winnet Jones be told to keep her window shades off or [G] we'll come take you down?
I don't even know where we are.
Well, it happened that the G.A. was going to meet that very afternoon.
I stand outside the shop window's light.
And [C] they were so surprised when Mrs.
Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room.
Use your imagination.
And [G] as she walked up to the blackboard, I still recall the words she had to say.
She said, [C] I'd like to address this meeting of the Huffer Valley G [G].A.
Well, there's Bobby Taylor sitting there and seven times he's asked me for a date.
And I enjoyed going every time.
And Mrs.
Taylor sure seems to use a lot of ice whenever he's away.
And [G] Mr.
Baker, can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town at all?
And [C] shouldn't Winnet Jones be told to keep [D] her window shades off or we'll come [G] take you down?
Well, Mr.
Huffer couldn't be here because he stayed too long at Kelly's bar again.
No, he's back.
[C] And if you smell Shirley Thompson's breath, you'll find she's had a little nipple jam.
[G] And then you have the nerve to tell me you think that as a mother I'm not fit.
[C] Well, this is just a little pay-to [D]-place and you're my Huffer [G] Valley hippie prince.
No, I wouldn't put you on because it really did, it happened just this way.
[C] The day my mama socked it [D] to the Huffer Valley [G] PTA.
Really, they sang it this way.
[C] The day her mama socked it to [A] everybody's [G] local PTA.
