Linda Winchell - 'I thought I Was A Disco Queen'

2014-11-08 1

Hadn't been out, for a very long time
to a night club, to cut a rug!
Then I was asked, to join my sister
for Disco dancing and some fantastic grub!

Well I've been a happy, but bored homemaker
for about now, twenty years or so.
Didn't know, just what Disco was all about
but thought, that I might just want to go!

So I looked at some old Disco movies
the one with that, John Trevolta fella and all.
I saw what they were all wearin
and proceeded, to shop the malls!

I found me a cool lookin, flared out skirt!
and a shinny top, too match!
Then on to the shoe department
then drove off home, to try on all my stash!

I did my hair up funky like
ratted it high and sparyed to the hilt!
Drove to my sisters, for our big night out
but strangers reactions, gave my big ego, a gilt!

That night, as my sister and I walked towards the restaurant
cat calls and honking, was comin, from everywhere!
'Hey sweet thing, how much do ya cost? '
And, 'Are wearing, any fancy underware? '

I took one look over at my sister
she had this questioned look, upon her face!
She said, 'I think they think we're two Hookers? ! '
and felt my cheeks turn red, with such disgrace!

'This ain't gonna stop us Sis! '
Was for her, my quick reply!
While, I tried to keep the tears from comin
I didn't want my Sis, to see me cry!

We ate our fanstastic dinner
although, all who were eating whispered
and fellas, gave us both, a wink or two!
But this wasn't gonna stop me at all!
from having our Disco dance night, fun for two!
