Julie London (born Gayle Peck; September 26, 1926 – October 18, 2000) was an American jazz and pop singer, actress and a former pinup model. She was noted for her smoky, sensual husky voice and languid demeanor. She released 32 albums of pop and jazz standards during the 1950s and 1960s, with her signature song being the classic "Cry Me a River", which she introduced in 1955.

They like to chat about the dresses they will wear tonight

They chew the fat about their tresses and the neighbours' fight

Inconsequential things that men don't really care to know

Become essential things that women find so apropos

But that's a dame

They're all the same

It's just a game

They call it girl talk, girl talk

They all me-ouw about the ups and downs of all their friends

The who, the how, the why, they dish the dirt, it never ends

The weaker sex, the speaker sex, we mortal males behold

But though we joke, we wouldn't trade you for a ton of gold

So baby stay, and gab away

But hear me say

That after girl talk

Talk to me

(Orchestral Break)

But that's a dame

They're all the same

It's just a game

They call it girl talk, girl talk

(Orchestral Break)

So baby stay, and gab away

But hear me say

That after girl talk

Talk to me
