Well, I want to
tell you a story
about a hopper valet with a wife
She had a teenage son who attended
Hopper
Valley
Senior
High
Yes he did.
One day he came home and
he didn't even stop to play.
No he didn't y 'all.
He said,
Mom, I got a note from the
Harper
Valley
PTA.
Look here.
He said,
Mrs.
Johnson, you're wearing
your dresses too high.
That's what the note said
You've been runnin' round with me
And goin' wild
That's what it said
And we don't believe you ought
To be bringin' your son
Up this way
That's what it said now
And it was signed by
The
Secretary of
Harbor
Valley
D .T .A.
Look at him
Now it happened that the
PTA was meeting that very afternoon
Oh yes it was now
They were sure so surprised when
Miss
Johnson wore a mini dress in the room
Yes they was
She boogalooed to the blackboard
And these are the words I heard her say
Oh yes she did now
She said, I'd like to address
the meeting of the
PTA
Oh, yes, she did now
Look at him,
Bobby
Taylor, you sitting there
Sometimes you ask for a date
That's what she said now
And
Mrs.
Taylor seems to use a lot of ice
While he's away
Yes, she does
And
Mr.
Baker, can you tell me why your
secretary left this town?
You ain't never told that yet.
And should
Whittle
Jones be told to keep her
window shades way down?
I don't know.
Mr.
Harper couldn't be here.
He stayed too long at
Kelly's bar again.
Oh yes, he did now.
And if you smell
Shirley
Thompson's breath,
you'll find she's had a little nipple gene.
Oh, yes, she did now.
And she said, now you've got the nerve to
tell me as a mother I'm not fit.
That's what she said now.
This is just a little hidden place up
Harper
Valley.
Hypocrite.
Oh, yes, it is now.
I wouldn't put you on
You see it really did happen
Just this way
Oh yes it did now
The day my momma
Shopped you to the
Harper
Valley
PTA
Do it again
The day my momma
Shopped you to the
Harper
Valley
PTA
I wanna say it one more time
The day my momma
I'll stop to do the hobo ballet,
VTA
