lyrics

PETTICOAT IN THE RAIN
© Susan R L Turner 2014

With great ease and repose
She entered through the out door
She graced the room with a face like the sun
(With a face like the sun
And the night had just begun)
A window wide open blew a breeze down the hallway
Blowing stars into her eyes
She said

I feel reckless my mind has gone astray
When I hear music it carries me away
(Takes her to another world)
She said
I'm dreaming I can see it all so clear
Then she went dancing
In her petticoat in the rain
In the rain

Stars in her eyes as she danced in the night
No inhibitions no trouble in mind
In the rain in her petticoat
A dreamy dreamy girl
Drifting along in a fantasy world

All the people there couldn't believe their eyes
They looked at her and laughed
And some cried
They thought she must be insane
She said
I feel reckless
All I really want to do
Is dance in the rain in my petticoat tonight
I could fly across the ocean
Fly across the sea
Fly across the ocean
Try to keep up with me
I can see it all she said
She had stars in her eyes
Oh in her eyes

With great ease and repose
She entered through the out door
