Famous Nicknames

They nicknamed Doris Day the girl next door But she never lived next door to me. Sting is known as sting but isn't a bee. Davy Jones was known as a monkey But I never saw him swing through trees. The called big John Wayne the Duke But he wasn't born within aristocracy. Lana Turner was known as the sweater girl But I never saw her sweat. They call the invisible man invisible But I haven't seen him yet. Tarzan was known as the king of the jungle But go tell that to a lion Your title wouldn't have a lot to rely on. Jane Mansfield was known as the blonde bomb shell So get ready to run like hell. Elvis was known as the pelvis But there must have been more to him than that. Bridget Bardot was know as the sex kitten But wasn't a cat. James Brown was known as the Godfather but Didn't join the mob. Sylvester Stallone Was known as the Italian stallion?.
