Lydia, The Tattooed Lady Lyrics

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia
Lydia the Tattooed Lady
She has eyes that folks adore so
And a torso even more so

Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopidia
Lydia the Queen of Tattoos
On her back is the Battle of Waterloo
Beside it the wreck of the Hesperus, too
And proudly above waves the Red, White, and Blue
You can learn a lot from Lydia

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

When her robe is unfurled, she will show you the world
If you'll step up and tell her where
For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paris
Or Washington crossing the Delaware

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia
Lydia the Tattooed Lady
When her muscles start relaxin'
Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson

Lydia, oh Lydia, that encyclopidia
Lydia the queen of tattoos
For two bits she will do a mazurka in jazz Michael Feinstein - Lydia, The Tattooed Lady - http://motolyrics.com/michael-feinstein/lydia-the-tattooed-lady-lyrics.html
With a view of Niagara that nobody has
And on a clear day you can see Alcatraz
You can learn a lot from Lydia

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

Come along and see Buff'lo Bill with his lasso
Just a little classic by Mendel Picasso
Here's Captain Spaulding exploring the Amazon
Here's Godiva but with her pajamas on

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

Lydia, oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia
Lydia, the Tattooed Lady
When she stands, the world gets lit'ler
When she sits, she sits on Hitler

Oh Lydia, oh Lydia that encyclopedia
Lydia, the champ of them all
She once swept an Admiral clear off his feet
The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat
And now the old boy's in command of the fleet
For he went and married Lydia

La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la

For he went
and married Lydia

Lydia the Queen of Tattoos
