Maud and Mabel, seated at a table
Talking over bygone days
Mabel sporty, fat and over forty
Said, "Remember Edith Hayes"
Eadie was a s**er for a bottle and gla**
But in spite of everything that gal had cla**
Then one winter, she wed a Chinese printer
Struck her with refined like ways
But Eadie was a lady (Eadie was a lady)
Though her past was shady (Though her past was shady)
Eadie had cla**, with a capital K
Though her life was merry (Though her life was merry)
She had savoir fairey (Talking of savoir fairey)
Eadie did things in a ladylike way
She would have a golden toothpick handy
After meals sheâ??d flash it about
Remember how she used to drink her brandy
With her finger sticking well out
For Eadie was a lady (Eadie was a lady)
Ask P. I. Oâ??Grady
Eadie had cla**, with a capital K
