I watched "Mama for Mayor" part 1 & 2 yesterday. And, I really like the song, "Those Harper Days are Here Once More" that Thelma sings in "Mama for Mayor" part 1. I was wondering, does anybody have the lyrics for that song? I'm doing a quote notebook and that would make a wonderful addition! I have the lyrics to "Raytown, Oh Raytown."
Thanks. :)

Your best bet is to be on the lookout for when TBS plays that show
tape it and write the words down
You can view which episodes TBS will play on their website

Harper Days (Are Here Again)

So long, sad ties,
Go long, bad guys,
We won't see you anymore

Hello, Harper
Thelma Harper
You're the one we've been looking for...

'Cause Harper days are here once more
Thelma Harper's one you can't ignore
For the ills of Raytown she will cure
Harper days are here once more

For Thelma Harper cast your vote
She is the one we must promote
'Cause she's got Tutwiller by the throat
Thelma Harper needs your vote

Your cares and troubles are past
She threw them out on their ear

Thelma Harper's on the ball
For Raytown's vote she'll heed the call
And she sure belongs in City Hall
Harper days for one and all

Thelma Harper she's the one
Who can finish what she has begun
She'll get rid of that old simpleton
Poor 'Tutty is all done

Tutwiller don't have a prayer
Against the good ol' gray mare
Put 'er there!

Haper days are on their way
We won't forget that happy day
When Thelma Harper had her say

Harper days...
Harper nights...
Thelma Harper's on her way!



Hope this helps... :)

I just NOW! noticed the date of the orginal post, 2003!! YIKES! Better late than never?...lol. I hope you ended up getting the lyrics before just now though, for Pete's Sake! Tell the truth, my beautiful transcript of the lyrics were worth the 2 year wait wasn't it?...lol. I'm in a giddy mood, my apologizes. I promise to be quicker on the draw next time.
