But our lyrics were:

The steamboat had a bell,
Miss Lulu went to heaven.

My 1970s Pittsburgh (North Hills area) version was this:

Miss Lucy had a steamboat,
The steamboat had a bell,
Miss Lucy went to heaven and

East of Pittsburgh was....

Miss Lucy had a steamboat
The steamboat had a bell
Miss Lucy went to heaven
the steamboat went to
Hell-o operator
please give me number nine
And if you disconnect me
I'll kick you right
Behind the refrigerator
There stood a piece of glass
Miss Lucy sat upon it
And she broke her little
Ask me no more questions
Tell me no more lies
The boys are in the bathroom
Pulling down their
Flies are in the city
Bees are in the park
Miss Lucy and her boyfriend
Are kissing in the
D-A-R-K, D-A-R-K
Darker than the ocean
Darker than the sea
Darker than the black cat
That's chasing after me![/quote]

I'm the original PP above (the Ms. Lulu poster) and I am from Monroeville, so east of the city.  Went to University Park ES, then Monroeville Jr High (now Gateway Middle School), then Gateway Sr High.  Graduated in 1983.

And I stand corrected.  You both are right that the flies were in the city not in the kitchen.  [/quote]
