Little Egypt
(Words & music by Leiber - Stoller)

I went and bought myself a ticket
and I sat down in the very first row
They pulled the curtain but then when
they turned the spotlight way down low
Little Egypt came out a-struttin'
wearin' nothin' but a b___on and a bow
Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying

She had a ruby on her tummy
and a diamond big as Texas on her toe
She let her hair down
and she did the hoochie-coochie real slow
When she did her special number
on the zebra skin I thought she'd stop the show
Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying

She did her triple somersault
and when she hit the ground
She winked at the audience
and then she turned around
She had a picture of a cowboy tatooed on her spine
Said, Phoenix, Arizona 1949

Yeh, let me tell you people Little Egypt
doesn't dance there anymore
She's too busy mopping and a-takin'
care of shopping at the store
'Cos we've got seven kids and all day long
they crawl around the floor
Singing ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying, ying-ying
