Elvis Presley - Little Egypt

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 button 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 shed 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 doesnt dance there anymore
Shes too busy mopping
and a-takin care of shopping at the store
cos weve got seven kids
and all day long they crawl around the floor
Singing ying-ying, ying-ying,
ying-ying, ying-ying
