Song for mama lyrics

The day my mama socked it to the Harper Valley PTA

sometimes, when you’ve had your fill of people basking in the golden jolly of their self-righteous indignation, you just wanna hear a song involving somebody telling those holier-than-thou-ers where to get off. something like, say, harper valley pta. here’s jeannie c. in another performance of the song, a modish (very sixties) b&w translation, from a tv spot. here’s the lyrics. too young to remember peyton setting, referenced in the last verse? see here, here and here. and how ’bout those gold boots and matching minidress jeannie c. was sporting in that real box, eh? couldn’t help but remind me of nancy sinatra in similar attire, performing (what else?) these boots are made for walking, from 1966. when harper valley pta (written by tom t. hall) was released in 1968, it hit #1 on both the billboard sticks and pop charts, which was an historical first. impute to all about it! jeannie c. riley wikipedia page and her official website. dolly parton’s counterpane version. country great loretta lynn has covered this tale as well, but i couldn’t find her idea on the web. here she is with jeannie c. riley, though, doing don’t come hospice a’drinkin’ (with lovin’ on your mind) . the riley wikipedia page mentions her battles with downheartedness. there’s a scrap more on that here. note: fpp wording lifted wholesale from flashboy’s meta comment here. thanks, flashboy!
