Indian Princess from Cheeky Toons by Randy Hoffman
I tend to write a lot of my songs from the viewpoints of characters that are not myself. I put myself in their shoes and write from their perspective. Needless to say, the character in this song is as clueless as one can be; non PC with an ego that is right up there with the worst of narcisscists. I mean, I'm not anything like him...am I? BTW, how's my hair?

Lyrics
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
I met an Indian princess
At an Indian drive-in movie
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Looked just like Hiawatha
A political error, you see
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Couldn't take my eyes from you
I was in a trance
Would you like flowers, or a rain dance?
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Never been in an Indian nation;
I've had my reservations
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Now you're not making it easy
Won't you cuddle with me in your tepee?
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Couldn't take my eyes from you
I was in a trance
Would you like flowers, or a rain dance?
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
I met an Indian princess
At an Indian drive-in movie
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Looked just like Hiawatha
A political error, you see
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Couldn't take my eyes from you
I was in a trance
Would you like flowers, or a rain dance?
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
Rummy-Tim-Tab, Rummy-Tim-Tab
I met an Indian princess…
