MINI-SKIRT MINNIE
(Red Simpson)
Red Simpson - 1967
There's a swingin' honkytonk just down the road from me
And there's a swingin' waitress there just as cute as she can be
She's such a pretty sight and her mini skirt fits just right
They call her mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
Ah, mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
Puts all the other girls to shame when it comes to looks, you see
Well, I knew from the start she'd won my heart and that's alright with me
'Cause I'm in love with-a mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
(Instrumental Break)
Well, a guy in town is a-chasin' sweet Minnie, you see
But he don't have a chance 'cause Minnie's in love with me
Well, I'm a-gonna make her my wife, then I'll spend the rest of my life
With mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
Well-a, mini skirt Minnie sure knocked me for a loop
I feel like a chicken that just got caught in a coop
Well, I knew from the start she'd won my heart and that's alright with me
'Cause I'm in love with-a mini skirt Minnie from Memphis Tennessee
Yeah, I'm in love with-a mini skirt Minnie and Minnie's in love with me
