SECRET LOVE (As sung by Homer & Jethro)
Once I had a secret love That lived way down in Tennessee. I loved the ground that she walked on. I thought she owned that property.
Yes, she was my secret love. Of that there cannot be a doubt. I've been in love with her for years. I hope my wife don't find it out.
Once I took her took a picture show. Tried to kiss her while the lights were low. She hit me in the mezzanine Between the popcorn and the Coke machine.
Now she's really got me up a tree 'Cause some dirty pigeon told on me, An' now my head is awful sore 'Cause my secret love's no secret anymore.
