[Verse 1]
In their eAmyes is the place that you finally discovered
That you lFove it here, you've got to stay
On the bDmottom of the rock, an island
On which you find you lAmove it when you twitch
You feel that itch in you peFttycoat
Your pretty preDmtty pettycoat
Then you smAmiled, he got wild
You didn't understand that there's moFney to be made
Beauty is a card that mDmust get played
By orgGanisation
[Chorus]
And Amooh Fla, she was such a gGood girl to Dmme

[Verse 1]

In their eyes is the place that you finally discovered

That you love it here, you've got to stay

On the bottom of the rock, an island

On which you find you love it when you twitch

You feel that itch in you pettycoat

Your pretty pretty pettycoat

Then you smiled, he got wild

You didn't understand that there's money to be made

Beauty is a card that must get played

By organisation

[Chorus]

Am F G Dm

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me

F Am G Dm

And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

F Am G Dm

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me

F Am G Dm

And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

[Verse 2]

The world can be a very big place

So be yourself don't get out of place

Love your man and love him twice

Go to Hollywood and pay the price

Oh go to Hollywood

And don't be a star, it's such a drag

Take care of yourself, don't begin to lag

It's a hard life to live, so live it well

Am F

I'll be your friend and not in pretend

I know you girl

In all situations

[Chorus]

Am F G Dm

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
