Lydia the Tattooed Lady - Zip-a-dee-doo-dah

Lydia oh Lydia say have you met Lydia

Lydia the tattooed lady

She has eyes that folks adore so

And a torso even more so

Lydia oh Lydia that "Encyclopedia"

Oh Lydia the Queen of tattoo

On her back is the Battle of Waterloo

Beside it the Wreck of the Hesperus too

And proudly above the waves

The Red White and Blue

You can learn a lot from Lydia

La la la La la la La la la La la la

She can give you a view of the world

In tattoo if you step up and tell her where

For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paree

Or Washington crossing the Delaware

La la la La la la lu lu lu lu lu lu

Lydia oh Lydia say have you met Lydia

Oh Lydia the tattooed lady

When her muscles start relaxin'

Up the hill comes Andrew Jackson

Lydia oh Lydia oh have you met Lydia

Oh Lydia the champ of them all

She once swept an Admiral clear off his feet

The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat

And now the old boy's in command of the fleet

For him when he married Lydia

La la la La la la

La la la La la la

She can give you a view of the world

In tattoo if you step up and tell her where

For a dime you can see Kankakee or Paree

Or Washington crossing the Delaware

La la la La la la lu lu lu lu lu lu

Lydia oh Lydia say have you met Lydia

Oh Lydia the champ of them all

She once swept an Admiral clear off his feet

The ships on her hips made his heart skip a beat

And now the old boy's in command of the fleet

For him when he married Lydia
