I want to tell you all the story `bout a Harper Valley widowed wife,
F
who had a teenage daughter, who attended Harper Valley Junior High.
C
Well, her daughter came home one afternoon and didn`t even stop to play,
F G C
and she said, “Mom I, got a note here from the Harper Valley P.T.A.
C
Well, the note says, “Mrs. Johnson,
C7
you`re wearing your dresses way too high.
F
It`s been reported you`ve been drinking
and a-running round with men and going wild.
C
Now, we don`t believe you ought to be
F G C
And it was signed by the “Secretary, Harper Valley P.T.A.“
C C7
Well, it happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that very afternoon,
F
and, boy, were they surprised
when Mrs Johnson wore her mini-skirt into the room.
C
And as she walked up to the blackboard,
I can still recall the words she had to say.
F G C
She said, “I`d like to address this meetin` of the Harper Valley P.T.A."
C
“Now there`s Bobby Taylor sittin` there,
C7
and seven times he`s asked me for a date,
F
and Mrs Taylor she seems to use a lot of ice whenever he`s away.
C
And Mr. Baker, can you tell us, why your secretary had to leave this town?
F
And shouldn`t widow Jones be told
G C
to keep her window shades all pulled completey down."
C
“Now Mr. Harper couldn`t be here,
C7
cause he stayed too long at Kelly`s Bar again,
F
and if you smell Shirley Thompson`s breath
you`ll find, she`s had a little nip of gin.
C
And then you have the nerve to tell me,as a mother,you think that I'm not fit.
F
Well, this is just a little Peyton Place,
G C
and you`re all Harper Valley hypocrites."
C
Now I wouldn`t put you on,
C7
because it really did, it thappened just this way,
F G C
that day my momma socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.,
F G C
that day my momma socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
