I HAVE NOT GRANTED EMBEDDING RIGHTS TO ANY PARTY. FIRST POST HAS STOLEN THIS VIDEO FROM YOUTUBE

This video was particularly difficult to put together. I stuck with it, though, because it is dedicated to a YouTube friend. My friend's name is Polly aka iluvperu1

Polly always has a kind word for my videos, and she has been very supportive and encouraging. This is for you, Polly!

=======================

Eartha Kitt recorded 'Just An Old-Fashioned Girl', on the RCA label in 1958

=======================

Are you ready for a shock?

If sources are correct, you see Eartha @ 1:50, performing with the Oregon Symphony (Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, Portland, Oregon) February 2008 at the age of 81, shortly before her death-Dec 25, 2008.

How many of us could even hope to look this good at that age?

=========================



I'm just an old fashioned girl with an old fashioned mind
Not sophisticated, I'm the sweet and simple kind.
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire.
I want an old fashioned car, a cerise Cadillac,
Long enough to put a bowling alley in the back.
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire.
I'll stay weaving at my loom,
Be no trouble to my groom,
If he'll keep the piles of money mounting.
In our cottage there will be
A soundproof nursery
Not to wake the baby while I'm counting.
I like the old fashioned flowers, violets are for me -
Have them made in diamonds by the man at Tiffany.
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire.
I'm just a pilgrim at heart, oh so pure and genteel.
Watch me in Las Vegas while I'm at the spinning wheel!
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire.
I'll ask for such simple things when my birthday occurs:
Two appartment buildings that are labelled 'Hers' and 'Hers'.
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire.
I like Chopin and Bizet
And the songs of yesterday,
String quartets and Polonesian carols.
But the music that excels
Is the sound of oil wells
As they slurp, slurp, slurp into the barrels.
Our little home will be quaint as an old parasol,
And instead of carpet I'll have money wall to wall.
I want an old fashioned house, with an old fashioned fence
And an old fashioned millionaire.
