I Wanna Be a Gal
When I was green and clean and boy
I said to mom:
I wanna be a gal
and mom she asked me what I want
for she was not sure she heard me right
I said I wanna be a gal
a gaal a gaaaal
a beautiful gal
with tassels fair and fluffy
hanging freely on my back
an' big blue eyes
an' rosy cheeks
an' golden shoes like Cinderella
an' marry a prince and be his princess
an' dad he overheard me whine
an' raised his stick and
hit
hit
hit
But mom she wasn't gruesome at all
She only covered my face with spit
