We were three little girls from school
One was pretty, one was smart and one was a borderline fool
Well she's still good lookin', that woman hasn't slipped a bit
The smart one used her head, she made her fortune and me, I cross the border every chance I get
We were the girls of the 50's, la-la, la-la
Stoned rock and rollers in the 60's
And more than our names got changed as the 70's slipped on by
Now we're 80's ladies, There ain't been much these ladies ain't tried
We've been educated, We got liberated and had complicating matters with men
Oh, we've said "I do" and we've signed "I don't" and we've sworn we'd never do that again
Oh, we burned our bras, and we burned our dinners and we burned our candles at both ends
And we've had some children who look just like the way we did back then
Oh, but we're all grown up now, All grown up,
None of us could tell you quite how
Chorus
A- my name is Alice
I'm gonna marry Artie
We're gonna sell apples
And live in Arkansas
B- my name is Betty
I'm gonna marry Bobby
We're gonna sell beans
And live in Brazil
C- my name is Connie
I'm gonna marry Charlie
We're gonna sell cars
And live in California
