lyrics
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter always says hello to me
And though we are not lovers, I’ve always loved her and she loves me
Tell us what you really mean
We really want to know
I can’t tell you anything you don’t already know
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter has a garden in her yard
We sit playing Rummy and she always gets her cards
Now, I don’t think she’s cheating, but I couldn’t say for sure
‘Cause when the liquor is flowing freely, well the whole damn thing’s a blur
Tell us what you really mean
We really want to know
I can’t tell you anything you don’t already know
Yeah, yeah, yeah, na, na, na, na
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter’s genuine
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na…
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter has always been a friend of mine
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter could chew an ear right off of me
She speaks her mind, says her peace, and then she counts to three
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter can drink my liquor and my wine
Cause Mrs. Chapman’s daughter has always been a friend of mine
Tell us what you really mean
We really want to know
I can’t tell you anything you don’t already know
Yeah, yeah, yeah, na, na, na, na
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter’s genuine
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na…
Mrs. Chapman’s daughter has always been a friend of mine
