"LITTLE MAMA DEEDLES" - a birthday song.

(With a ragtime "Vaudeville-ish" melody, this song was written for the 40th birthday party of Diane Schuur, celebrated American jazz singer and a dear friend for 3 decades, at an evening event in Seattle.)

 
Here comes our Little Mama Deedles
My my, we're feeling pins n' needles
From our noses, right down to our feet-les,
Oh yeah -- whoa whoa...
 
There she goes in a slinky red pajama
Such a touch of scintillating drama
To make her smile, we'd hike to Ala-bama,
Oh yeah -- whoa whoa...
 
 
CHORUS: 
Oh you should see her when she walks into a room
All the guys they fantasize
They shiver & they quiver at her Va-Va-Va-VOOM!
 
 
Gee whiz what a lovely little lady
The world's at 55 & she is drivin' eighty
To make her laugh, we'd swim the sea to Haiti
Oh yeah -- whoa whoa...
 
Have you heard, she stood up Warren Beatty
If you're a jazzy cat, you better not be  fraidy!
Man we're talkin' 'bout a smooth-lovin' lady --
Oh yeah -- whoa whoa...
 
 
CHORUS: 
Oh you should see her when she walks into a room
All the guys they fantasize
They shiver & they quiver at her Va-Va-Va-VOOM!
