Little Egypt

I went and bought myself a ticket
And I sat down in the very first row
They pulled the curtain
But then when they turned the spotlight way down low
Little Egypt came out a-struttin'
Wearin' nothin' but a button and a bow

Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying
Ying-ying, ying-ying

She had a ruby on her tummy
And a diamond big as Texas on her toe
She let her hair down
And she did the hoochie-coochie real slow
When she did her special number on the zebra skin
I thought she'd stop the show

Singing, ying-ying, ying-ying
Ying-ying, ying-ying

She did her triple somersault and when she hit the ground
She winked at the audience and then she turned around
She had a picture of a cowboy tattooed on her spine
Said, Phoenix, Arizona 1949

Yeah, but let me tell you people
Little Egypt doesn't dance there anymore
She's too busy mopping
And a-takin' care of shopping at the store
'Cause we've got seven kids
And all day long they crawl around the floor

Singing ying-ying, ying-ying
Ying-ying, ying-ying

Pequeño Egipto

fui y me compre un boleto
y me sente en cada primera hilera
ellos jalaron la cortina
pero cuando apagaron la luz
pequeño Egipto salió
vistiendo nada mas que un botón y un lazo

cantando, ying-ying, ying-ying
Ying-ying, ying-ying

ella tenia un ruby en su panzita
y un diamante grande como Texas en su pie
ella dejo caer su pelo
e hizo un grandioso show
cuando hizo su numero especial en la piel de zebra
pensé que ella pararía el show

cantando, ying-ying, ying-ying
Ying-ying, ying-ying

ella hizo el triple salto mortal y cuando ella golpeo el suelo
ella le guiño a la audiencia y entonces ella se volteo
ella tenia una foto de un vaquero tauado en su espina
decía, phoeniz Arizona 1949

si, pero dejenme decirles
pequeño egipto ano baila
ella esta muy ocupada trapeando
y haciéndose cargo de una tienda
porque tenemos siete niños
y todo el dia ellos gatean en el suelo

cantando, ying-ying, ying-ying
Ying-ying, ying-ying
