And Get To The Party Before The Ham Gets Ate

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
Put That Red Dress On Ms. Scarlett
By La Belle Rouge

So what if some dried up ole biddies
think you shouldn’t be invited.
Put on that red dress Miss Scarlett
and get yourself over to the party
quick, before all the ham is ate!

You can’t help it if you’re so full of life
men just naturally flock to you
or that you’re so full of love and passion
you just naturally welcome em
when they break their necks to get there.

Don’t be sittin round on your veranda
singin no sad songs, no Ma’am!
Put on them dancin slippers right now
cause Mr. Rhett is waitin impatiently
to dance the Virginia reel with you.

Curl up your hair and pinch your cheeks
bite your lips too, to add some color.
No need to cry over spilt milk,
Just don’t think about it now
think about that tomorrow

After all, tomorrow is another day.
So slip on that red dress Ms. Scarlett.
If they wanna call you a whore
just be the prettiest one you can
showin your bosom before evenin
makin them wish they had some to show.

Now get on over to the party
before them ole biddies
see you comin, lock the door
and eat all the biscuits they selves.
