Coasters Little Egypt Lyrics

Little Egypt Lyrics

I went and bought myself a ticket and

I sat down in the very first row, wo
wo.

They pulled the curtain but then when

they turned the spotlight
way down low, wo wo,

little Egypt came out strotting,

wearing
nothing but a button and a bow, wo wo,

singing, "Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!
Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah''.



She had a ruby on her tummy and

a
diamond big as Texas on her toe, wo wo.

She let her hair down and

she did the hoochie koochie real slow, wo wo,

When she did her special
number on a zebra skin,

I thought she'd stop the show, wo wo,

singing, "Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!".



She did
a triple somersault and when she hit the ground,

she winked at the
audience and then she turned around.

She had a picture of a cowboy
tattooed on her spine,

saying Phoenix, Arizona, nineteen forty-nine.



Yeah, but let me tell you people,

little Egypt doesn't dance
there anymore, wo wo.

She's too busy mopping and

a taking care of
shopping at the store, wo wo.

'Cause we got seven kids and

all day
long they crawl around the floor, wo wo,

singing, "Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!
Yeah yeah! Yeah yeah!"
