Lady Godiva Lyrics


Peter & Gordon Lady Godiva


Seventeen, a beauty queen,
She made a ride that caused a scene, in the town

Her long blonde hair
Hangin' down around her knees.
All the cats who dig striptease
Prayin' for a little breeze.
Her long blonde hair
Falling down across her arms
Hiding all the lady's charms
Lady Godiva

She found fame and made her name
A hollywood director came into town
And said to her
"How'd you like to be a star?"
"You're a girl that could go far"
"'specially dressed the way you are"
She smiled at him
Gave her pretty head a shake
That was Lady G's mistake
A-hey-hey-hey, Lady Godiva

He directs certificate 'X'
And people now are craning their necks, to see her
'cause she's a star, One that everybody knows
Finished with the striptease shows
Now she can't afford her clothes

Her long blonde hair
Lyin' on the barber's floor
Doesn't need it long anymore
Lady Godiva
