Old Maid

Mrs. Hallelujah chants the teacher's pet
Mrs. Hallelujah how come you aint no Mrs. Yet
You didn't get the wedding dress,
the room for two, the sweet caress
And you didn't get the tenderness
You didn't get the man

Mrs. Hallelujah sings the high school band
Mrs. Hallelujah well she just can't understand
Cause she always did what mamma said.
She kept the bible in her head
The holy water in her bed
It kept away the man

Old maid love is on the way
Some day he'll come and make it all
He'll make it all you OK
You say good girls can't
give it all away
But god should and god will do anything

Old maid she lies awake
She contemplates and undulates
to pictures of the boys she left at school
And old maid she made mistakes
She tests the times her heart can break
But never did she break the golden rule

Old maid love is on the way
Some day he'll come and make it all
He'll make it all you OK
You say good girls can't
give it all away
But God should and God will do anything
For old maids
