Skinny Minnie:Bob Denton (Eddie Cochran
on guitar - 1958.)
#1.
GWell, I got a girl they call Skinnie Minnie,
she may be skinny but she's got plenty..
the Ckind of lovin' that I desire,
the Gkind of love that sets my soul on fire.
CSkinnie Minnie, Dman, that gal can Glove.
CHORUS:
She's Clong and lean like a stringbean,
she Gdon't look good in blue jeans.
Her Chair hangs down like a rag mop,
she Dmakes my heart go flippedy-flop.
#2.
She Gcan't cook, she ain't much on looks,
the things she knows, she didn't read in books.
CSkinnie Minnie, Dman, that gal can Glove.
(INSTRUMENTAL:PIANO:)
CHORUS:#2.
When Cme and Minnie walk down the street,
Gall the boys stop and stare.
But Cif they knew just what I do,
you Dbet your life they'd love her, too.
#3.
Well, Gwhen I kiss her out in the dark,
I tear the thing up, there's so much spark.
CSkinnie Minnie, Dman, that gal can GloveC.D  G  
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
