The Naughty Lady of Shady Lane

(Roy Bennett - Sid Tepper)



The naughty lady of shady lane

Has hit the town like a bomb

The back fence gossip ain't been good

Since Mabel ran off with Tom.



Our town was peaceful and quiet

Before she came on the scene

The lady has started a riot

Disturbing the suburban routine.



The naughty lady of shady lane

Has the town in a whirl

The naughty lady of shady lane

Mi-o-mio what a girl.



You should see how she carries on

With her admirers galore

She must be giving 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 refreshments

The lady never, never says no.



The naughty lady of shady lane

Has the town in a whirl

The naughty lady of shady lane

Mi-o-mio what a girl.



The things they're trying to pin on her

Won't hold much water, I'm sure

Beneath the powder and fancy lace

Beats a heart sweet and pure.



She just needs someone to change her

Then she'll be nice as can be

If you're in the neighborhood stranger

You're welcome to drop in and see.



The naughty lady of shadow lane

So delightful to hug

The naughty lady of shady lane

She's delectable, quite respectable

And she's only nine days old...
