Harper Valley P.T.A. Songtext

von Billy Ray Cyrus

I wanna tell you all a story 'bout a Harper Valley widowed 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 P.T.A.'

Well the note said, 'Mrs. Johnson, you're wearing your dresses way too high,
It's reported you've been drinking and running 'round with men and going wild
And we don't believe you ought to be bringing up your little girl this way'
And it was signed by the secretary, Harper Valley P.T.A.

Well, it happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that afternoon
And they were sure surprised when Mrs. Johnson wear her mini skirt into the room
And as she walked up to the blackboard still recall the words she had to say
She said, 'I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley P.T.A.'

'Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there and seven times he's 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 the 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 then you have the nerve to tell me as a mother you think that I'm not fit
Well, this is just a little Peyton Place and you're all Harper Valley hipocrites'

No I wouldn't put you on 'cause it really did, it happened just this way
The day my momma socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
The day my momma socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
The day her momma socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
