Текст песни I Want A Long Time Daddy - Elaine Stritch

Way Downtown Detroit
The master of ceremonies:
Ruby Bentley himself
Singing "Up a Storm"
In black tie
Hot pink lipstick
A touch of blush
And false eyelashes
I loved it!

So did Caca, she was there with her husband
She didn't ran on me this time, she didn't had to
I took care of that myself. The next morning, upstairs
Get ready, go to mass. It was sunday

And, well within your shock
Are both, my mother and father
I start singing
Full out
A Ruby
Bentley
Special

I want a long time daddy
Who'd be ready anytime I call
I said I want a long, long, long, long, long time daddy
Who's gonna be ready anytime that I call

Now, I don't want no green-horn rookie
Like a soul you're going to walk
He's got all that big artillery and he don't know what is for

I want a long
Time
Daddy
Who's gonna be ready
Any time
That I call

What the hell is that you are singing about?!
What the hell is that you're singing about?!

My God!
My father exploded

The truth was I didn't know what the hell that was I was singing about

I just knew it was groovie, and blues-y and I dugged it
And I was grounded for two weeks
