Reet Petite And Gone (10-10-46) - Louis Jordan

I found a gal that beats 'em all

She isn’t too short and she isn’t too tall

She’s in the groove and right on the ball

She’s reet, petite and gone

What a babe, she’s the tops

When we go out they don’t need no traffic cops

One look at her and the traffic stops

Cause she’s reet, petite and gone

Now I could have my pick you know

Cause I got dough that’s ready to go

But this chick’s so mighty fine

She got me all tied up like a ball of twine

When I do things, I do 'em right

I won’t ever let my baby out of sight

We’ll tie the knot and we’ll tie it tight

Cause she’s reet, petite and gone

That chick has changed my attitude

Whe ever I gaze on her pulchritude

I’m tellin' you, Jack, she’s so mighty fine

She got me all tied up like a ball of twine

Those other chicks leave me cold

You can’t compare brass to 14 carat gold

After they made her they broke the mold

Cause she’s reet, petite and gone
