Doatsy Mae - The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas/1978 Original Broadway Cast/Remastered

Frederick of Hollywood's got these clothes
In a movie magazine
Send in money
Take your pick
End up like a Playboy queen
I wanted to
I wanted to
But I never could

Went to the county fair, saw me a show
They had a girl up there
She wore a diamond stuck in her belly
She danced and threw around her hair
I wanted to
I wanted to
But I never could

Doatsy Mae, plain as gray, respectable
Doatsy Mae, day by day, respectable
Doatsy Mae, the one nobody thinks of having dreams
Ain't as simple as she seems

Some girls have crazy secret thoughts that can really make 'em fly
Some girls can even do the things they maybe think they'd like to try
I wanted to
I wanted to
But I never could

Got me a garter belt, got me a bedroom
Sometimes I close me in
Dance to the mirror, then I can imagine
I'm someone that I've never been
I wanted to
I wanted to
But I never could

Doatsy Mae, plain as gray, respectable
Doatsy Mae, day by day, respectable
Doatsy Mae, the one nobody thinks of having dreams
Ain't as simple as she seems
Doatsy's not as simple as she seems
