Martina Mcbride - Harper Valley PTA lyrics

I want to tell you all the story bout the Harper Valley widow wife

Who had a teenage daughter who attended Harper Valley Junior High

Well her daughter came home one afternoon and didn't even stop to play

She said mama I got a note here from the Harper Valley PTA

The note said Mrs Johnson you're a wearing your dresses way too high

It's reported you've been drinking and a running round with men and goin' wild

We don't believe you ought to be a bringing up your little girl this way

It was signed by the secretary Harper Valley PTA

Well it happened that the PTA was gonna meet that very afternoon

They were sure surprised when Mrs Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room

She walked up to the blackboard and I recall the things she had to say

She said I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley PTA

Now there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there and seven times he asked me for a date

And Mrs Taylor sure seems to use a lotta ice whenever he's away

And Mr Baker can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town

And shouldn't wodow Jones be told to keep

Her window shades all pulled completely down

Well Mr Harper couldn't make it cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again

And if you smell Shirley Thompson's breath you'll find she's had a little nip of gin

When you have the nerve to tell me that you think that as a mother I'm not fit

Well this is just a little Payton Place and you're all Harper Valley hypocrites

No I wouldn't put you on because it really did it happened just this way

The day my mama socket it to the Harper Valley PTA

The day my mama socket it to the Harper Valley PTA
