The Naughty Lady of Shady Lane
Words & Music by Sid Tepper & Roy Bennett
Recorded by The Ames Brothers, 1954 (#3)
Refrain:
Em B7
The naughty lady of Shady Lane
Em
Has the town in a whirl;
B7
The naughty lady of Shady Lane...
Em
Me oh my, oh what a girl!
Em B7
The naughty lade of Shady Lane
Em
Has hit the town like a bomb;
B7
The back fence gossip ain't been this good
Em
Since Mable ran off with Tom.
G D7
Our town was peaceful and quiet
G
Before she came on the scene;
Am Em
The lady has started a riot,
F# B7
Disturbin' the suburban routine.
Repeat Refrain:
You should see how she carries on
With her admirers galore;
She must be givin' them quite a thrill,
The way they flock to her door.
She throws those come-hither glances
At every Tom, Dick, and Joe;
When offered some liquid refreshment,
The lady never never says "no."
Repeat Refrain:
The things they're trying to pin on her
Won't hold much water, for sure;
Beneath the powder and fancy lace,
There beats a heart sweet and pure.
She just needs someone to change her,
And she'll be nice as can be;
If you're in the neighborhood, stranger,
You're welcome to drop in and see
E
The naughty lady of Shady Lane
B7
So delightful to hold;
The naught lady of Shady Lane
B7
She's delectable, quite respectable,
F#m7 B7 E
And she's only nine days old!
