Deep Purple - Mitzi Dupree ("House Of Blue Light", 1987)
flying to Salt-Lake city
seats 3a and b
i was down and needed a window
but in 3a sat mitzi dupree
she said "hi, i am mitzi,
the queen of the ping pong.
where you going boy?"
i said "nowhere"
she said "i'm movng on"
i thought what is this
i cannot resist
here she is
and i've always wanted a girl
with a name
a name like mitzi dupree
she said "what do you do?"
i said "i'm a singer in a band"
she said "ya? i'm an entertainer"
reached out and took my hand
she was going to a mining town
way up north to do her show
i said "it must be cold up there"
she said "depends on who you know"
oh that look in her eye
i can tell you no lies
i'm just a man
she made me feel like a king in my mind
i love you mitzi dupree
i said "what is this queen of the ping pong business?"
she smiled "what do you think"
it has no connection with china
i said oow have another drink
well i knew right away
that i'd seen her act before
in a room behind a kitchen in bangkok
and three or four times more in singapore
she may not be the first
but i know she ain't the worst
she was mine but i ran out of time
i miss you i love you mitzi dupree
my darling mitzi dupree

"And 'Mitzi Dupree' is a good one, too. ( Actually, it's a true story... )
