Neil Sedaka - Betty Grable... Lyrics

When I used to be a little kid i used to go
Every Saturday afternoon to the picture show

Close up to the screen my life wasso serene
I lived through every scene
With my movie queen

Betty Grable three hundred howlin' kids were
Always pack the house
But they just came for Donald Duck
And Mickey Mouse
But there would be a world of fantasy
Wrapped in the melody
She sang and danced for me

Betty Grable

Lots and lots of pine up shots
I had them all and there they were pasted up
Upon the wall

When mama said that it was time for bed
I'd eat some jam and bread
And watched your overhead

Betty Grable

Just the other night I saw her on
Some late, late show
And it occurred to me I'm someone that
She'll never know
So I wrote this little songI
For the lady that I've loved so long
Betty Grable
