Satan Place Lyrics

We saw a sign Welcome Satan Place when we moved to town that day

And rows of little white homes that looked like castles all along the way

But after livin' there a while we found it wasn't what we thought at all

They had a private little scandal goin' on behind each castle wall

There was a Town Council meetin' on the day the story come to pass

Someone said Mrs Brown we think your little girl is livin' way too fast

She's been datin' older boys and stayin' out much later than she should

And there's been quite a lotta talk about it goin' round the neighborhood

Well Mrs Brown said since you brought it up I think
I'll tell you what I saw

The day your daughter Ellie and the judge's son went swimmin' in the raw

Is that supposed to be a party what you call learnin' social grace

Cause if it is I think your people are in trouble here in Satan Place

I heard your neighbor's daughter Betty spent the summer in another townJeannie C. Riley - Satan Place - http://motolyrics.com/jeannie-c-riley/satan-place-lyrics.html

They say she gained a little weight before she left
but now she's trimmed back down

And now I wonder why the banker's son won't even look her in the face

We used to see 'em both together everywhere they went in Satan Place

They say the Mayor's daughter got another speedin' ticket just last week

They didn't charge for drunken drivin' even though
she couldn't hardly speak

I heard she brags about the way her daddy gets free liquor by the case

From all those bootleggin' friends who make a killin' here in Satan Place

When Mrs Brown had finished talkin' no one dared to make a single sound

Until the chairman of the meetin' rapped his gavel and looked around

And as his eyes swept across the room at guilty looks on every face

He said that wraps up this meetin' of the Council of Satan Place

He said that wraps up this meetin' of the Council of Satan Place
