Kisses For Cards

There once was a girl named Chantelle
Who all the boys knew very well
On Valentine's Day
She'd give them away
Those silly cards all the stores sell

Sometimes they would chase her and kiss
And she made sure they didn't miss
Chantelle was boy-crazy
But she wasn't lazy
She'd jump in their laps,I know this!

Now she's grown up it's plain to see
Her kisses are no longer free
For dinner and dancing
She might send you prancing
I know because that Chantelle's me!
