Lady Godiva

LADY GODIVA

Peter & Gordon

(M. Leander — C. Mills)

Seventeen, a beauty queen

She made a ride that caused a scene

In the town

Her long blonde hair

Hangin' down around her knees

All the cats who dig striptease

Prayin' for a little breeze

Her long blonde hair

Falling down across her arms

Hiding all the lady’s charms

Lady Godiva

She found fame and made her name

A hollywood director came into town

And said to her

«How'd you like to be a star?»

«You're a girl that could go far»

«'specially dressed the way you are»

She smiled at him

Gave her pretty head a shake

That was Lady G’s mistake

Lady Godiva

He directs certificate 'X'

And people now are craning their necks

To see her

'cause she’s a star

One that everybody knows

Finished with the striptease shows

Now she can’t afford her clothes

Her long blonde hair

Lyin' on the barber’s floor

Doesn’t need it long anymore

Lady Godiva
