As recorded by ALMA COGAN:
I wrote my Mum a letter
And this is what I said.....
Well-a-well-a-well
I washed all the dishes and I did a lot more
I even bought the dinner at the grocery store
Now, Mum, you'll find the key's next door
This little girl's gone rockin'
I left some biscuits for the dog
I put fresh water in his spot
Tonight I'm off, gonna live it up
This little girl's gone rockin'
Well, I'll be home by twelve tonight
Not a minute, minute, minute later
Don't forget the front door light
That's all for now, I'll see you later Mater
You'll find ev'rything that you want is done
I'm off to meet that special one
Boy-oh-boy will we have fun
This little girl's gone rockin', yes
(Saxophone Solo)
Well, I'll be home by twelve tonight
Not a minute, minute, minute later
Don't forget that front door light
That's all for now, I'll see you later Mater
You'll find ev'rything that you want is done
I'm off to meet that special one
Boy-oh-boy will we have fun
This little girl's gone rockin'
Oh, this little girl's gone rockin'
Oh, this little girl's gone rockin'
This little girl's gone rockin'
This litte girl...........FADE
