foghat - shirley jean lyrics
well i was sittin’ in a smokey room, band playin’ rock and roll,
everybody burnin’, yearnin’ for some alcohol.
i got up to buy the wine, when i saw shirley jean,
powdering her nose, posin’ like a movie queen.
shirley jean, sweet little seventeen,
shirley jean, she’s a lovin’ machine.
i tried to give her a sign, but she was too high to see,
sittin’ and starin’, carin’ not a thing for me.
woo!
sweet little shirley jean, sure lookin’ good to me,
jet black stockings, rockin’ to the bebop beat.
tell by the way she was actin’, musta’ had a whole lot to hide,
she’s got a whole lotta lovin’, all bottled up inside.
woo!
[rod – slide solo – nick – piano solo]
i ain’t goin to say a word, can’t find a word to say,
you ain’t gonna get me, let me tell you right away.
i gave up and wandered out, when i saw the reason why,
hugging little shirley, a curly headed honey pie.
shirley jean, sweet little seventeen
shirley jean, sweet little lovin’ machine, well
shirley jean, sweet little seventeen,
shirley jean, she’s a lovin’ machine.
well, shirley jean, sweet little seventeen,
shirley jean, she’s a lovin’ machine.
yeah, well, shirley jean!
let me grease your machine!
let me check your oil.
woo!
sure looks good to me!
