Miss Joan Hunter Dunn, Miss Joan Hunter Dunn What a vision of loveliness you have become As I watch from the wings sipping a Pimms A one-sided love affair has just begun
She holds a martini and graciously flirts Still wearing the fetching tennis skirt All the boys stare as she climbs up the stair Every one wishing she could be theirs
Miss Joan Hunter Dunn, Miss Joan Hunter Dunn Did I cheer too loud for the match that you won? Was our handshake too long when I told you well done?
And now it is nineteen seventy one What an excellent wife and mother you've become But alas not to me Miss Joan Hunter Dunn
