'Who had a teenage daughter
Now there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there
Because it really did it happened just this way
From the Harper Valley P.T.A."
Whenever he's away
And as she walked up to the blackboard
And seven times he asked me for a date
Well it happened that the P.T.A .
You'll find she's had a little nip of gin
It's reported you've been drinkin'
And if you'll smell Shirley Thompson's breath
Of the Harper Valley P.T.A."
Was gonna meet that very afternoon
'Cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again
And a runnin' round with men and goin' wild"
Well her daughter came home one afternoon
You think that I ain't fit
Now, I wouldn't put you on
And boy were they sure surprised
That day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
That attended Harper Valley Junior High
Well the note says, "Mrs. Johnson
I can still recall the words she had to say
And she said, "Mom I got a note here
Well, this is just a little Payton Place
When Mrs. Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room
And didn't even stop to play
She said, "I'd like to address this meeting
Now we don't believe you ought to be
And Mr. Baker can you tell us
And when you have the nerve to tell me as a mother
Now Mr. Harper couldn't be here
You're wearing your dresses way too high
A bringin' up your little girl this way
And shouldn't widow Jones be told
And it was signed by the secretary
And Mrs. Taylor sure seems to use a lotta ice
Why your secretary had to leave this town?
To keep her window shades all pulled completely down?
Harper Valley P.T.A.
And you're all Harper Valley hypocrites
