Dolly the doll
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Yes, this is the story of the queen without a crown
She showed me love can win, the greatest show in town
She was 21 in '26
The cabaret queen of Paris
The leading lady of the Moulin Rouge Chicks
Her legs were four feet tall
The real knock-out of the nightlife scene
Her lips as red as cherries
My great-grandma, do you see what I mean?
And her name was Dolly the Doll
She's got it, she's got it
We just can dream about it
She's got it, she's got it
Oh yes, she's got it all
She's got it, she's got it
We just can speak about it
She's got it, she's got it
Amazing Dolly the Doll
Doll, Doll, Doll, Doll the Dolly
Doll, Doll, Doll, Doll the Dolly
Doll, Doll, Doll, Doll the Dolly
Talk of the Champs Elysee
The ballroom blitz of '26
She had a year of sold out gigs
And everybody got his kicks
Of the Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
Absolutely sensational
She was a smash, she knew it well
And everyone was under spell
Of Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
She's got it, she's got it
Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
She's got it, she's got it
Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
Swing it out, baby
Guitar!
So many men were waiting
Before the greenroom door
With arms full of roses
For the girl they all adored
Then suddenly she disappeared
The cabaret queen of Paris
That was the night that he appeared
Fair haired and six feet tall
She was on fire when he kissed
Her lips as red as cherries
And great-grandpa could not resist
The charms of Dolly the Doll
Doll, Doll, Doll, Doll the Dolly
Doll, Doll, Doll, Doll the Dolly
Doll, Doll, Doll, Doll the Dolly
Talk of the Champs Elysee
The ballroom blitz of '26
She had a year of sold out gigs
And everybody got a kick
Of the Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
Absolutely sensational
She was a smash, she knew it well
And everyone was under spell
Of the Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
She's got it, she's got it
Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
She's got it, she's got it
Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
She's got it, she's got it
Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
She's got it, she's got it
The ballroom blitz of '26
She had a year of sold out gigs
And everybody got his kick
Of the Doll, Doll, Dolly the Doll
The illusive Dolly the Doll
