First
Verse
History is full of deeds that famous men
have done, Like Napoleon, and Thomas Edison, We can brag about
them, but remember by the way, The great big things some little
girl is doing every day:
Second
Verse
Still we hear the women shouting, "We
Want Liberty, And we must be free from man's tyranny!"
"They must give us equal rights, why should we be the
goats?" But they forget, one girl can do more than a
thousand votes:
Chorus
One little girl drives a dozen men wild,
One little girl makes an old man a child, One little kiss
and you jump in the sky, One look like this and you're ready
to die. One little girl makes your bank book a sight, And
though your rent's over due, Still you buy diamond rings,
Oh what wonderful things One little girlie can do.
Chorus
Two
One little girl acts so simple and shy,
Seems like an angel just out of the sky, You promise her that
you'll give her a ring, She makes believe that she don't know
a thing. Gives you your way and you say to yourself, "This
is too good to be true," And you think it's great sport,
Till she drags you in court, Oh, what wonderful things she
can do.
Patritoic
Chorus
Some little girls take a mighty big chance,
One little girl led the soldiers of France Many a girl gladly
gives everything, Just for her Country, her Flag and her King.
And Miss America she'll do the same, For the old Red, White
and Blue, In the hour of need, Oh, what wonderful deeds You
little girlies can do.
