Description
I believe this is from the book 'How to Draw Those Bodacious Bad Babes of Comics'
by Frank McLaughlin and Mike Gold
It is notated as page 70.
I do not have a copy of the book to check.

This was a nice fun piece that I picked up back in the day.

Girls!
All I really draw is (Girls!)
And in McLaughlin it's (Girls!)
'Cause in the drawings it's (Girls!)

I like the way that they walk
And it's chill to share them drawn
Frank I can always make 'em style
From White Castle to the Nile

Back in the day (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
There was this girl around the way (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
She liked my art piece of bad babes (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
He said he would not give her page (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
I asked him "Please?", he said "You may" (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
Her pants were tight, and that's OK (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
If she would dance, I would display (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
He took a lot down to time pay

I hope she'll say (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
"Hey, me and you should hit ebay!" (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
I bid her up, she said "No way!"(bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
I should've probably guessed not paid (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
So I broke north with no delay (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
I heard she moved deal for Stingray (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
That was two years ago this May (bom, bom, bom-bom, bom-bom, bom, bom, bom-bom)
I seen her just what cover says
Drawin' DC to my dismay

I think Adam, Mike and Adam would be much happier to see this version of the lyrics, as they realized several years later how misogynistic they were and denounced them. It just seemed silly back in the day, but now they're so cringey!

Definitely a fun piece. So, according to McLaughlin, in order to know how to draw women you have to remember that their nipples are rock hard at all times and always can be seen popping through their clothing. Got it!

I'm told it was chilly outside when they posed for that photo ;)

Well mine are always rock hard and popping through my clothing so it seems that's a fair guess.

Great pop art lines from McLaughlin, especially on the lower right figure. Fun page!

McLaughlin is compositionally abreast of the situation ;)

Nicely rendered good girls for a bad girls book! His work is very appealing. I was fortunate to meet Frank one time at an early NYCC.
