Just Arrived
HER NAME IS....LOLA!
SHE'S FROM TULSA,YEAH!
JUST ARRIVED,TWO SUITCASES IN HAND
AND A DREAM IN HER HEART
Just arrived track seventeen
all the way from Tulsa Okla-nowhere
where's her chauffeured limousine?
where's the marching band?
just in time to take the town
and though her knees are shaking
she's making her stand
It all starts now
I can see her name in neon
I won't allow
anyone to disagree
don't ask me how
but before too long
she'll be on some marquee
New York or bust
she's just arrived
Just arrived track 17
(Just arrived track 24)
All the way from Tulsa, Oklahoma
(All the way from Saint Paul, Minnesota)
(All the way from Fargo, North Dakota)
Though she's still a little green
(Marching through the open door)
When she left, she left her past behind
(Wonder what she'll find)
Just imagine, here she is, the girl from work
(The soda jerk)
(The groc'ry clerk)
The kid they all made fun of
Is one of a kind
It all starts now
Look who's currently appearing!
This girl's a wow,
All the magazines agree
She'll take her bow,
and the world will all be cheering
Wate and see!
New York or bust!
She's just arrived!
Hey!
(Hey, which way's uptown?)
somebody said they're auditioning for
"South Pacific"
(Where's the palace?)
Say!
(Hey! She's from Dallas)
Somewhere I read
They need lookers
And she looks terrific
(That one's Alice)
This is her moment
(Hey, world here I come!)
She knows it
She can taste it
And she sure ain't gonna
waste it 'cause
It's time she faced it
It all starts now
(Right now!)
I can see her name in neon
(I can see her name in blazing neon)
This girl's a wow,
(And how!)
All the magazines agree
(No way anyone would dare to disagree)
She'll take her bow,
(Oh, wow!)
And before too long, she'll be on some marquee
Gathering dust
She just survived
Now, New York, or bust
She's just arrived
Hey, world
She just arrived!
