Verse 1 
There’s a cottage just along the lane, right where the corner bends,
And the lass that lives there – oh my word! – she’s trouble in all senses,
She’ll wave from her gate with a cheeky grin, and a twinkle in her eye,
You think you’re safe, you think you’re wise – then she’ll lead you on a mile!
She’s got a way of turning heads, wherever she may roam,
That naughty girl down the road from home.
 
Verse 2
The baker says she flirts when he calls with his basket on his arm,
She’ll pinch a bun and laugh it off, and cause him no end of harm,
The postman blunders past her gate, forgets which letters go where,
And even old Mr Higgins down the lane forgets to grumble or stare!
She’ll tease and charm and twist you round, before you know your place,
That girl’s got mischief written all over her face.
 
Verse 3
Last week she borrowed my best hat – said “just to try it on a while” –
Next thing I know she’s strutting past, walking in proper style,
Said “I look much smarter than you, George, don’t you think it’s true?”
Then she ran off laughing down the path, before I could say or do!
She borrows things, she never brings ’em back, that’s just her little game,
That naughty girl down the lane is quite the same.
 
Verse 4
The vicar tried to give advice, said “lass, you must behave more staid”,
She said “But sir, it’s all in fun – no harm has ever been made!”
She’ll curtsy sweet and look so meek, like butter wouldn’t melt,
Then turn right round and pull a trick – and leave you quite unspelt!
She knows exactly how to play it soft, and how to make you bend,
That girl’s a proper handful, in the end.
 
Verse 5
Now I’ve been warned by neighbours all – “keep well away, my friend” –
But somehow when I pass her gate, my feet just won’t attend,
She’ll call me over, ask a question – innocent as day –
And before I know I’m tangled up in whatever games she’ll play!
I know I ought to keep my distance, I know I ought to be wise…
But she’s got that look that I can’t deny.
 
 
 
Chorus 1
Oh, the naughty girl down the road, the mischief‑making lass I know!
She’ll twist your heart and turn your head, wherever you may go,
With a smile so sweet and a trick so neat, you never know what’s in store –
That naughty girl down the road… I wouldn’t change her, not for more!
 
Chorus 2
Oh, she teases and she torments, she’s a rascal through and through,
But there’s no girl in this whole wide world quite as bright and sweet as you!
She’s a handful, sure, but she’s full of fun, and that’s what makes it so –
That naughty girl down the road – oh, she’s the one I love so!
 
 
 
Bridge
They say she’s wild, they say she’s flighty, too free and too bold,
But I see the sparkle in her eyes, and a heart of pure gold,
Her pranks are just her way of living, bright and full of cheer,
And though she drives me round the bend… I wouldn’t have her less, my dear!
 
 
 
[Outro: Ukulele strum, playful whistle, spoken aside – “Well… maybe just a little bit naughty, mind!”]
