Well friends you know once I was took in by a girl with a twinkly eye

But the first time that I wasn't lookin' she ran off with a handsomer guy oh my

But I'm an inventin' type feller so as soon as my brain got uncurled

I tiptoed right down to my cellar and built a mechanical girl

Oh her arms are iron her legs are steel her hips are on wires attached to a wheel

And her spine is a coil that I now and then oil she's my ever lovin' machine



She's always right there when I need her and she's very easy to please

And hardly cost nothing to feed her just some water and oil and grease

She never complains when I stay out all night she never complains that I ain't rich

And each time I want her just to cuddle me up tight

I just reach out and turn on 'er switch

Oh her arms are iron...



She has no trouble makin' her mind up cause friends I did not give her a mind

And her heart is a clock that I wind up so I know that she'll love me in time

She always did what she was supposed to right up to this evening but then

She had an affair with a toaster and they ran off and left me again

Oh her arms were iron her legs were steel her hips were on wires attached to a wheel

And her spine was a coil that I used to oil she was my ever lovin' machine
