Noticing the evening
I lay my window bare
Breezy alley lady
Comes stroking through the air

Well, fly, lady, fly
Try and escape
The warm and watchful eye

A moment's born to flatter
She promises no more
Claims there is no wisdom
Just recall of once before

Yeah, fly, lady, fly
Try and escape
The warm and watchful eye

You should see her totin'
A pocketbook across her shoulder
Corncob pipe in her mouth
You'd think she was much older than she was

Alley lady, fly
Alley lady, fly
Night is all about her
Concealing how she feels
She tells me not to worry
She'll autograph before she steals

Yeah, fly, lady, fly
Try and escape
The warm and watchful eye

Oh, you should see her totin'
A pocketbook across her shoulder
Corncob pipe in her mouth
You'd think she was much older than she was

Alley lady, fly
Alley lady, fly
