Mitzi Dupree

Flying to Salt Lake City seats 3A and B I was down and needed a window But in 3A sat Mitzi Dupree She said 'Hi I am Mitzi The Queen of the ping pong Where you going boy' I said 'nowhere' She said 'I'm movng on' I thought 'what is this I cannot resist Here she is And I've always wanted a girl With a name A name like Mitzi Dupree' She said 'what do you do' I said 'I'm a singer in a band' She said 'ya I'm an entertainer' Reached out and took my hand She was going to a mining town Way up north to do her show I said 'it must be cold up there' She said 'depends on who you know' Oh, that look in her eye I can tell you no lies I'm just a man, she made me feel Like a King in my mind I love you Mitzi Dupree I said 'what is this Queen of the ping pong business She smiled,' what do you think It has no connection with China' I said 'oow have another drink' Well I knew right away that I'd seen her act before In a room behind a kitchen in Bangkok And three or four times more in Singapore She may not be the first But I know she ain't the worst She was mine, but I ran out of time I miss you, I love you Mitzi Dupree My darling Mitzi Dupree
