I still recall the words she had to say.
She said: "I'd like to address this meeting
of the Harper Valley P.T.A." 

Well, there's Bobby Taylor sittin' there and
seven times he's asked me for a date.
Mrs. Taylor sure seems to use a lot of ice
whenever he's away.
And Mr. Baker, can you tell us why your
secretary had to leave this town?
And shouldn't widow Jones be told to keep
her window shades all pulled completely down.

Well, Mr. Harper couldn't be here 'cause
he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again.
And if you smell Shirley Thompson's breath,
you'll find she's had a little nip of gin.
Then you have the nerve to tell me you think
that as a Mother I'm not fit.
Well, this  is just a little Peyton Place and
you're all Harper Valley hypocrites.

Now, I wouldn't put you on, because it really
did, it happened just this way,
They day my Mama socked it to the
Harper Valley P.T.A.
