I'm about to tell a story that I haven't yet, about the most intelligent woman that I ever met.
She looked like Jackie Onassis.
Top of her classes, and I'm doing my best just passing by.
I'm so funny in my body I can barely walk.
I'm so full of them funny feeling I can barely talk, and here comes Jackie Onassis.
Don't need to ask it, but have you ever seen a woman so fine?
She said 'Come on out, just a couple hours. We gonna have a real good time."
And I say 'Where ya going? Where ya going? When ya coming home?"
Somebody in the front seat calls out 'Everyone quit wasting my time!
Gotta hit the road and hit the road, hit the road."
There they go and there they go and I was on my own.
I aint never spoke my mind up in a crowded place, I aint got no cool demeanor and smooth talking ways.
Cuz I aint like Jackie Onassis.
Girls in sunglasses looking me up like Im part of some game.
Well the altercation happened round the 10th of May.
Some poorly dressed spectator had something unkind to say, it comes back to me in flashes.
I get risky, there's a swing and a miss and I'm all ashamed.
When she found me I was in pieces crying hard into my hat, she tell me
"Mama you look lovely when you take a stand"
I tell her "No one's ever been so kind to me and I thank you for that."
She said "Here ya go and here ya go, here ya go."
Took her hair out a bow and put that ribbon in my hand.
Here we go!
Look at that lady. She carries herself right, singing ah ah ah.
She's the first lady, to walk me through the night she's singing ah ah ah.
Oh play it, play it, play.
I got sunny days on the track field, laughing hard just me and mine.
Got a great part in the spring play after all.
I got my rose pink tinted glasses and they fit me just fine.
And I let it go and let it go, let it go.
Babada babadada babada babadaba baba.
Here we go!
Look at that lady. She carries herself right, singing ah ah ah.
She's the first lady, to walk me through the night she's singing ah ah ah.
Look at that lady. She carries herself right, singing ah ah ah.
She's the first lady, to walk me through the night she's singing ah ah ah.
Look at that lady, Little Miss Thing! She carries herself right, singing ah ah ah.
She's the first lady, hold my hand and walk me through the night she's singing ah ah ah.
Look at that lady. She carries herself right, singing ah ah ah.
She's the first lady, to walk me through the night she's singing ah ah ah.
