Let me introduce you to my jolly latest friend
A sporty girl of that there is no doubt
A stocky girl a sturdy girl of some substantial build
She’s a goer and her serves are rarely out

Thirty love, forty love I think that she’s lost count
Of the chaps that she has played with just for fun
She doesn’t seem to keep the score or follow rules I know
And she says that no one’s lost and no one’s won

Despite the constant rumours of her tendency to let
I’ve heard she’s never put her body up for rent
Though they’ve said she’s prone to foot falls, she’s put no foot wrong with me
And for me this girl is really heaven sent

They say she isn’t bothered by the surface that she plays
She’s at home on every surface that she meets
She can handle grass [if not too damp] and clay [if not too hard]
Though they says that she’s a preference for clean sheets

She likes to play in singles and she likes to play in pairs
And she has been known to play a game of three
Well I like her cos she’s sporty and she’s always game to play
And she doesn’t leave half way to have a pee

She is handy with a racquet and she beats me black and blue
She’s a forehand that can keep me going for hours
And her back hand leaves me breathless though I’m hesitant to say
That when she slices you can really feel that power

I want to play these games with her for ever and a day
I hope she keeps me as her partner really keen
But she’s flighty called twice nightly and she’s a tendency to drift
And have quick games with others in between

Ho hum my little tennis star my flighty lusty love
In the heat of play I love your dubious calls
And I love the way you volley volley volley until dark
But why is it you always want new balls?
