| | | Artist: | Irving Berlin |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Happy Little Chorus Girl 1913 | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 65 | | | | Lyrics: | Parody or preliminary version of "Happy Little Country Girl".]
[1st verse:]
There
she goes - flashy clothes
Dressed up like a circus from her head to her toes
See those
rings - flashy things
You would surely swear her father was a millionaire
But that's not
so - 'cause I know
She's just one of many in a musical show
She's the little girl in
blue
The one who made an awful hit with you
[chorus:]
Happy, happy, happy
little chorus girl
Polish up your imitation pearl
Go to sleep and dream about a duke or
earl
Who may marry you someday
Powder up for Harry, Johnny, Jack and Bob
Make up
pretty for your front row mob
Lose your figure and you lose your job
Happy little chorus
girl
[2nd verse:]
Manager - dresses her
But it's all subtracted from her
seventeen per
After he - gets his fee
Half her salary she sends home to her
mother
And an empty purse makes it worse
When for seven weary weeks she has to
rehearse
After much rehearsing nights
She's fired 'cause she doesn't fit her tights | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
