WHO KILLED MISS FIFI LA DOLLE Lyrics

I came across a newspaper from a long time ago

Told the story of a country girl from down by the bayou

Who ran away to the big city

And boy was she pretty

At least that's what her photograph did show

Met her fate aged sixteen, June nineteen fifty-five

Found stabbed in a hotel bathroom and that's where she died

Taken before her time

Cut down in her prime

So sad I could have cried

As I read the words on the page

With tears in my eyes

I thought of that young girl

And her sad demise

And all I wanna know

Is who killed Miss Fifi La Dolle

The cop assigned to the case was detective Tobias Wood

Thirty years on the force he did everything he could

But while he walked the walk

It seems nobody would talk

Though he scoured the whole neighborhood

No suspects, no evidence, no motives were found

Nobody seen coming or going, or hanging around

With fingerprints wiped clean

And no clues left at the scene

He failed to discover what went down

As I read the words on the page

With tears in my eyes

I thought of that young girl

And her sad demise

And all I wanna know

Is who killed Miss Fifi La Dolle

With the crime lying dormant in the cold case archive

And no family, friends, or witnesses left alive

There's no chance of a conviction

At least that's my prediction

I only hope her story will survive

As I read the words on the page

With tears in my eyes

I thought of that young girl

And her sad demise

I guess we'll never know

Who killed Miss Fifi La Dolle

And let me remind you

This all happened a long time ago
