Guitar & harp

I wanna tell you 'bout my mountain home

Where all the ladies name's are Joan

Where husband works back late at night

Hopes are up, for trousers down, with the hostess on a business

flight

Taxi in a Mercedes drive

I hope that driver's comin' out alive

The garden it is Dorseted, that lady she's so corseted

She's got 15 ways to lead that boy astray

Thinks he's one and only, but that lovely she's so lonely

She pumps him full of breakfast, and she sends him on his way

Pre-chorus

What a sing, song, dance

What

performance

What a cheap tent show

Oh, no, no, no, no, no

Chorus

Then the boys light up )

Then the boys light up )

Then the boys light up ) x 2

Then the boys light up, light up, light up )

Break

Silently she opens the drawer

Mother's little helper is comin' out for more

Strategically positioned, before the midday show

That back is arched, those lips are parched, repeated blow by

blow

And later at the party, where all the MP's rave

'Bout the hummers she's been givin', and the money that they

saved

To her it is skin lotion, him promotion too

That flat in Surfers' Paradise, with the ocean view
