Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Skinny Lizzie' song from Belfast area?
The title reminds me of "Skinny Minny" (Bill Haley) and "Boney Maronie" (Larry Williams), a couple of rock & Roll songs that were popular in the fifties.
My skinny Minnie is a crazy chick Six foot high and one foot thick Well, do I love her, does a boy love pie? Well, she is the apple of my eye Skinny Minnie, she ain't skinny She's tall, that's all
I got a girl named Bony Moronie She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni Oughta see her rock 'n' roll with her blue jeans on She's not very fat, just skin and bone But I love her and she loves me Oh how happy now we can be Makin' love underneath the apple tree
