I thought she was just singing the next line of the telephone man song!

Now, the mist across the window hides the lines
But nothing hides the color of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine
Look and dry your eyes
80s

Me and my sister used to laugh at the lyric that went something like
Went to my apartment Monday at one
Singing ooo lardy lardy shakey bum shakey bum

We were easily amused!

My mother told me, If I was goody.
That she would buy me a rubber dolly.
My Aunty told her I kissed a soldier,
Now she won't buy me a rubber dolly.

We're drinking beer at noon on a Tuesday
In a bar that faces a giant car wash

If we’re doing the 90s:

“Up in Memphis, the music’s like a heatwave,
White lightning, bound to drive you wild,
Mama’s baby’s in the heart of every schoolgirl,
‘Love Me Tender’ leaves them crying in the aisles”.

Has to be Black Velvet Alanna Myles?
