Gotta say I'm pretty special
Been called the cat's meow
Though I'm gettin' sorta long in the tooth
I can still show the young folks how



In my earlier days, I was quite a looker
And got used to bein' much desired
To heck with modesty and playin' coy
I'll admit it; I liked to be admired



Always confident, though maybe a tad vain
If I saw somethin' purty, I wanted it
By hook or by crook, I always came through
I had it and I sure flaunted it



I'm still a pretty savvy old lady
Never lacked none for self-esteem
Don't like to settle for second best
Why be milk when you can be the cream?



Yep, I still like to shake my booty a mite
At the home where the geezers hang out
I like to flirt and call 'em all honey
That's what havin' fun's all about



So armed with lipstick and a pushup bra
I can overcome any old hurdle
And come out lookin' like a million bucks
With the help of a wig and a girdle



Fellas know a good thing when they see it
Some are even still sharp enough to spot it
Political correctness be hanged, I'm a-lookin' fine
And, by cracky, this old gal's still got it
