Louis Jordan - (You Dyed Your Hair) Chartreuse lyrics

You're a freckled gal You're a pug-nosed cutey, sweet as Charlotte Russe You've got big blue eyes So I ask you why have you dyed your hair chartreuse? Chartreuse (chartreuse) Chartreuse (chartreuse) Though you think it's mighty cute Just wait 'til I write and tell your ma That you dyed your hair chartreuse (Repeat) In the days of old When the knights were bolder and the girls were truer blue Just think what paw Would have said to maw had she dyed her hair chartreuse Chartreuse (chartreuse) Chartreuse (chartreuse) Though you think it's mighty cute You went too far in that beauty booth When you dyed your hair chartreuse Now you know I know That your hair was black when we lived on Chestnut Street When you wore pigtails And ginger ale was your most favourite treat You're a big girl now So you think it's cuter being fast and fancy-loose But you went too far in that beauty booth When you dyed your hair chartreuse Chartreuse (chartreuse) Chartreuse (chartreuse) Though you think it's mighty cute Just wait 'til I write and tell your ma That you dyed your hair chartreuse Chartreuse (chartreuse) Chartreuse (chartreuse) Though you think it's mighty cute But just wait 'til I write and tell your ma You didn't like black, you didn't like red You hated blondes, well, it's no use You got mad and dyed your hair...
