Neil Sedaka - Betty Grable lyrics

When I used to be a little kid I used to go Every Saturday afternoon To the picture show Close up to the screen My life wa**o serene I lived through every scene With my movie queen Betty Grable Three hundred howlin' kids were always pack the house But they just came for Donald Duck And Mickey Mouse But there would be a world of fantasy Wrapped in the melody She sang and danced for me Betty Grable Lots and lots of pine up shots I had them all And there they were pasted up Upon the wall When mama said That it was time for bed I'd eat some jam and bread And watched your overhead Betty Grable Just the other night I saw her on Some late, late show And it occurred 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
