Little Girl From Little Rock

Little Girl From Little Rock - Marylin Monroe

We're just two little girls from little rock

We lived on the wrong side of the tracks

But the gentlemen friends who used to call

They never did seem to mind at all

They came to the wrong side of the tracks

Then someone broke my heart in little rock

So I up and left the pieces there

Like a little lost lamb I roamed about

I came to New York and I found out

That men are the same way everywhere

I was young and determined to be wined and dined and ermined

And I worked at it all around the clock

Now one of these days in my fancy clothes

I'm a going back home and punch the nose

Of the one who broke my heart the one who broke my heart

I learned an awful lot in little rock

And here's some advice I'd like to share

Find a gentleman who is shy or bold

Or short or tall or young or old

As long as the guy's a millionaire

For a kid from the small street I did very well on wall street

Though I never owned a share of stock

And now that I'm known in the biggest banks

I'm going back home and give my thanks

To the one who broke my heart the one who broke my heart

The one who broke my heart in little rock
