Harper Valley PTA     Jeannie C. Riley

          D7          
I want to tell you all a story 'bout a Harper Valley widowed wife
            G7
Who had a teenage daughter who attended Harper Valley Junior High
           D7       
Well her daughter came home one afternoon and didn't even stop to play
         G7                              A7               D7
She said Mom I got a note here from the Harper Valley P.T.A.
    D7 
The note said Misses Johnson, you're wearing your dresses way too high
       G7
It's reported you've been drinking and a runnin' round with men and going wild
        D7
And we don't believe you ought to be a bringing up your little girl this way
         G7                      A7               D7
It was signed by the secretary, Harper Valley P.T.A. 
           D7
Well, it happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that very afternoon
           G7
They were sure surprised when Misses Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room
            D7                     
And as she walked up to the blackboard I still recall the words she had to say
               G7                                  A7               D7
She said, I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley P.T.A.
              Eb7             
Well there's Bobby Taylor, sitting there and seven times he's asked me for a
date
         Ab7
Misses Taylor sure seems to use a lot of ice whenever he's away
           Eb7
And Mister Baker can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town
               Ab7                             Bb7
And shouldn't Widow Jones be told to keep her window shades all pulled 
            Eb7
completely down?
      Eb7
Well Mister Harper couldn't be here 'cause he stayed to long at Kelly's Bar
again
            Ab7
And if you smell Shirley Tompson's breath you'll find she's had a little nip
of gin
         Eb7
Then you have the nerve to tell me you think that as a mother I'm not fit
             Ab7                             Bb7                          Eb7
Well this is just a little Peyton Place and you're all Harper Valley
hypocrites.  
       Eb7
No, I wouldn't put you on because it really did , it happend just this way
           Ab7                    Bb7              Eb7
The day my Mama socked it to the Harper Valley P.t.A.  
           Ab7                    Bb7              Eb7
The day my Mama socked it to the Harper Valley P.T.A.
