She came down from Cincinnati | |
It took her three days on the train | |
Lookin' for some peace and quiet | |
Hoped to see the sun again | |
But now she lives down by the ocean | |
She's takin' care to look for sharks | |
They hang out in the local bars | |
And they feed right after dark | |
Chorus: | |
Can't you feel 'em circlin', honey | |
Can't you feel 'em swimmin' around | |
You got fins to the left, fins to the right | |
And you're the only bait in town | |
Oh oh | |
Oh oh | |
You got fins to the left, fins to the right | |
And you're the only girl in town | |
She's saving up all of her money | |
Wants to head it south in May | |
Maybe roll in the sand with a rock 'n' roll man | |
Somewhere down Montserrat way | |
But the money's good in the season | |
Helps to lighten up her load | |
Boys keep her high as the months go by | |
She's getting postcards from the road | |
Chorus: | |
Can't you feel 'em closin' in, honey | |
Can't you feel 'em schoolin' around | |
You got fins to the left, fins to the right | |
And you're the only girl in town | |
Sailed off to Antigua | |
It took her three days on a boat | |
Lookin' for some peace and quiet | |
Maybe keep her dreams afloat | |
But now she feels like a remora | |
'Cause the school's still close at hand | |
Just behind the reef are the big white teeth | |
Of the sharks that can swim on the land | |
Chorus: | |
Can't you feel 'em circlin', honey | |
Can't you feel 'em schoolin' around | |
You got fins to the left, fins to the right | |
And you're the only bait in town | |
You got fins to the left, fins to the right | |
And you're the only girl in town |
