[A]
I want to tell you all a story about a Hopper Valley widowed wife who had [D] a teenage daughter
who attended Hopper Valley Junior High.
[Am] [D]
[A] Well, her daughter came home one afternoon and didn't even stop to play.
And she said, [D] Mom, I've got a note here from [E] the Hopper Valley PTA.
[A]
Well, the note said, Mrs.
Johnson, you're wearing your dress is way too high.
It's [D] reported you've been drinking and running around with men and going wild.
And [A] we don't believe you ought to be bringing up your little girl this way.
And [D] it was signed by the [E] Secretary Hopper Valley [A] PTA.
It happened [F] [Bb] that the [Bb]
PTA was going to meet that very afternoon.
[Eb] And they were so surprised when Mrs.
Johnson wore her mini skirt into the room.
And as she [Bb] walked up to the blackboard, I can still recall the words she had to say.
She said, [Eb] I'd like to address this meeting [F] of the Hopper Valley [Bb] PTA.
Well, this Bobby Taylor's sitting there and seven times he's asked me for a date.
And [Eb] Mrs.
Taylor sure seems to use a lot of ice whenever he's away.
And [Bb] Mr.
Baker, can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town?
[Bbm] And [Eb] shouldn't Whitter Jones be told to [F] keep her when the shade's all pulled [Bb] completely down?
Well, [B] Mr.
Hopper couldn't be here because he stayed too long at Kelly's bar again.
No, he's back.
And [E] in his mail, Shirley Thompson's bed, you'll find she's had a little nib of gin.
And [B] then you have the nerve to tell me you think that as a mother I'm not fit.
Well, [E] this is just a little patent [Gb] place and you're a Hopper Valley [B] hypocrite.
No, I wouldn't push you on because it really did, it happened just this way.
That [E] day my mama socked you to [Gb] the Hopper Valley [B] PTA.
That [E] day my mama socked you to [Gb] everybody's local [B] PTA.
