Virginia O'Brien - Did I Get Stinkin' At the Savoy
Out to have some innocent fun
And when i wasn’t lookin’ it slipped up on me
And now the damage is done. oh…
Did i get stinkin’ at the club savoy
Did i get thinkin’ i was myrna loy
Did i get minglin’ with the hoi polloi
Boy did i get stinkin’ at the club savoy
Did i get clubbin’ with the guy with jack
He wound up givin’ me a piggy back
He had me swingin’ on the chandelier
Boy did i get tighter than a mouse’s ear
Edie was a lady
A lady was right
I thought i was a lady
Until last night. but …
Did i get stinkin’ at the club savoy
Did i get sailing with the ship ahoy
And going home i met a sweet convoy
Did i get stinkin’ at the club savoy
Oho, oho, oh ho ho ho
I really wasn’t thinkin’
When i started into drinkin’
And i wound up gettin’ stinkin’ at the club savoy
Oho, oho, oh ho ho ho ho ho
You really would’ve died
When i started gettin’ fried
And i wound up gettin’ pied at the club savoy
Started out with scotches
Then switched to rye
Then a little bitty, bitty zombie
My, oh my, oh my!
Today my head is floatin’ in a fog
It really shouldn’t happen to a dog
Today my life is not a thing of joy
Boy! did i get stinkin’ at the club savoy!
Did i really get stinkin’
Did i really get stinkin’ at the club savoy!

Virginia O'Brien - Say That We're Sweethearts Again
{Intro} Life used to be a gay thing A filled with happiness night and day thing It was something to have and to hold But it seems that your love grew cold
Virginia O'Brien - Bring on the Wonderful Men
(Verse) All this yap yap yap about glorifyin' dames Leaves me like a cold potato I'd much rather be With a handsome he Like Van Johnson, who's a real tomato
Virginia O'Brien - Salome
Let's go back two thousand years or more, perchance Before Delilah, before Godiva Before Gypsy Rose Lee was alive-a! Way way back, before they ever heard of oomph girls!
