Lyrics Shirley Jean - 2016 Remastered - Foghat

Price / Peverett - Knee Trembler Music - ASCAP
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!
