Rita the red head was a discontented soul
With the flaming hair and vacant stare
With two eyes that showed the toll

Rita the red head spins fairy tales they say
She so seldom knows how the story goes
But she always has her say

There must have been some money
In that old sows ear she found
For when she ran for office
Well she spread it all around.

O, Rita the red head
Was on stage for all to show
What rubbed her raw and stuck in her craw
Was she had to deal with Joe

Now Rita the red head
Kept a tally in her mind
Every thing he said made her see red
And the rage it drove her blind

Rita the red head found it easy to obey
When the orders came
She would curse his name
And the rumors were let go

It could have been his manner then
That had her so uptight
That when she spoke it became a joke
Her bark worse than her bite

Now Rita the redhead
Knew the value of the throne
When the laurels came addressed to her name
It was sure she wrote her own.

Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Look at Rita go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
She sure puts on a show.
