Lyrics of Mitzi dupree

Flying to salt lake city
Seats 3a and b
I was down and needed a window
But in 3a sat mitzi dupree

She said, "hi i am mitzi the queen of the ping pong
Where you going boy"
I said, "nowhere"
She said, "i'm moving on"

I thought what is this
I cannot resist, here she is
And i've always wanted a girl with a name
A name like mitzi dupree

She said, "what do you do"
I said, "i'm a singer in a band"
She said, "yeah i'm an entertainer"
Reached out and took my hand

She was going to a mining town
Way up north to do her show
I said, "it must be cold up there"
She said, "depends on who you know"

Oh, that look in her eye, i can tell you no lies
I'm just a man, she made me feel
Like a king in my mind, i love you mitzi dupree
I know i love you mitzi dupree

I said, "what is this queen of the ping pong business"
She smiled, "what do you think
It has no connection with china"
I said, "have another drink"

Well i knew right away
That i'd seen her act before
In a room behind a kitchen in bangkok
And three or four times more in singapore

She may not be the first
But i know she ain't the worst
She was mine but i ran out of time
I miss you, i love you mitzi dupree

My darling mitzi dupree
My darling, my darling
My darling mitzi dupree
Mitzi dupree
I love you mitzi dupree
