Little egypt lyrics

Artist  : Elvis presley 
Song : Little egypt
 

(Words & music by Leiber - Stoller)
I went and bought myself a ticket and I sat down
in the very first row
They pulled the curtain but then when they turned
the spotlight way down low
Little Egypt came out a-struttin` wearin` nothin`
but a button and a bow
Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying,
ying-ying
She had a ruby on her tummy and a diamond big as
Texas on her toe
She let her hair down and she did the
hoochie-coochie real slow
When she did her special number on the zebra skin
I thought she`d stop the show
Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying,
ying-ying
She did her 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 tatooed on her
spine
Said, Phoenix, Arizona 1949
Yeh, let me tell you people Little Egypt doesn`t
dance there anymore
She`s too busy mopping and a-takin` care of
shopping at the store
`Cos we`ve got seven kids and all day long they
crawl around the floor
Singing ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying,
ying-ying
