Billy Ray Cyrus - Harper Valley PTA lyrics

[Billy Ray Cyrus - Harper Valley PTA lyrics]

I wanna tell you all the story
About the Harper Valley widow wife
Who had a teenage daughter who
Attended Harper Valley Junior High
Well her daughter came home one afternoon
And didn't even stop to play
She said mom I got a note
Here from the Harper Valley PTA

Well the note said Mrs Johnson you're
Wearing your dresses way too high
And it's reported you've been
Drinking and a
Running round with men and going wild
And we don't believe you oughta be a
Bringing up your little girl this way
And it was signed by the
Secretary Harper Valley PTA

Well it happened that the PTA was
Gonna meet that very afternoon
And they were sure surprised when Mrs Johnson
Wore her miniskirt into the room
And as she walked up to the blackboard I can
Still recall the words she had to say
She said I'd like to address this
Meeting of the Harper Valley PTA

Well there's Bobby Taylor sittin'
There and seven times he asked me for a date
And Mrs Taylor sure seems to use a
Lot of ice whenever he's away
And Mr Baker can you tell us why
Your secretary had to leave this town
And shouldn't widow Jones be told to keep
Her window shades all pulled completely down

Well Mr Harper couldn't be here cause he
Stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again
And if you smell Shirley
Thompson's breath you'll find
She's had a little nip of gin
And when you have the nerve to tell me
As a mother you think I'm not fit
Well this is just a little Payton Place
And you're all Harper Valley hypocrites

No I wouldn't put you on because it
Really did it happened just this way
The day her mama socket it
To the Harper Valley PTA
The day her mama socket it
To the Harper Valley PTA
The day her mama socket it
To the Harper Valley PTA
