Betty Grable - Neil Sedaka

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 was so serene

Lived through every scene

With my movie queen

Betty Grable

Three hundred howlin' kids would always pack the house

But they just came for Donald Duck

And Mickey Mouse

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

The late late show

And it occurred to me I'm someone that

She'll never know

So I wrote this little song

For the lady that I've loved so long

Betty Grable

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 was so serene

Lived through every scene

With my movie queen

Betty Grable
