When I was a little kid, I used to go
Every Saturday afternoon to the picture show,
Close up to the screen, my life was so serene,
I lived through every scene,with my movie queen..
Betty Grable.
Three hundred howling kids would always pack the house,
But they just came for Donald Duck & Mickey Mouse,
But there would be a world of fantasy,
Wrapped up in the melody she sang & danced for me,
Betty Grable.
Lots & lots of pin-up shots,I had them all,
And there they were all pasted up upon the wall,
When Mama said "It's time for bed"
I'd eat some jam and bread, and watch her overhead,
Betty Grable.
Just the other night, I saw her on some late ,late show,
And it occured to me, I'm someone that she'll never know
So I wrote this little song,
For the lady that I've loved so long...
Betty Grable.
