[Verse 1]
When I used to be a little kid, I used to go
Every Saturday afternoon to the picture show
I looked up at the screen, my life was so serene
I lived through every dream with my movie queen

[Refrain]
Betty Grable

[Verse 2]
Three hundred howling kids would always pack the house
But they just came for Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse
But there would be a world of fantasy right then the melody
She sang and danced for me

[Refrain]
Betty Grable

[Verse 3]
And just the other night I saw her on some late late show
And it occurred to me I'm someone that
She'll never know
So I wrote this little song
For the lady that I've loved so long

[Refrain]
Betty Grable
