lyrics

No one even knows what happened or why
It seems that Gertrude has run away
Was she bored, or did she lose her mind
Or maybe there was even foul play

Oh, Gertie girl!
Your mother's still calling your name
Oh, Gertie girl!
Screen door swinging in the rain

I wonder who she's following around
And if her hair still hangs in her eyes
Does she scowl when they're laughing too loud
Does she nuzzle their chest when they cry

Oh, Gertie girl!
Your mother's still calling your name
Oh, Gertie girl!
Screen door swinging in the rain

Oh, Gertie girl!
Your mother's still calling your name
Oh, Gertie girl!
Screen door swinging in the rain
