Martina Mcbride - Harper Valley PTA lyrics

[Verse] I want to tell you all the story About the Harper Valley widow wife Who had a teenage daughter Who attended Harper Valley Junior High Well her daughter came home one afternoon And didn't even stop to play She said mama I got a note here From the Harper Valley PTA The note said Mrs Johnson You're a wearing your dresses way too high It's reported you've been drinking And a running round with men and going wild We don't believe you ought to be a bringing up Your little girl this way It was signed by the secretary Harper Valley PTA Well it happened that the PTA Was going to meet that very afternoon They were sure surprised when Mrs Johnson Wore her miniskirt into the room She walked up to the blackboard And I recall the things she had to say She said I'd like to address this Meeting of the Harper Valley PTA Now there's Bobby Taylor sitting there And seven times he asked me for a date And Mrs Taylor sure seems to use A lot of ice whenever he's away And Mr Baker can you tell us why Your secretary had to leave this town And shouldn't wodow Jones be told to keep Her window shades all pulled completely down Well Mr Harper couldn't make it Because he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again And if you smell Shirley Thompson's breath You'll find she's had a little nip of gin When you have the nerve to tell me That you think that as a mother I'm not fit Well this is just a little Payton Place And you're all Harper Valley hypocrites No I wouldn't put you on because It really did it happened just this way [Outro] The day my mama socket it to the Harper Valley PTA[x2]
