Sheila C.

Sheila C was the prettiest girl in our town
Boys loved her, some people used to say she was around
Sheila's reputation was safe
She was my first love and she was my last
Sheila C was the prettiest girl in our town

Every night we'd see you wait and have a run through
Turn the radio up and do the lover's do
Everybody knew that Sheila and I
Would be together the rest of our lives

Why did he take her away from me? (Sheila)
He couldn't love her, couldn't love her any more than me (Sheila)
I should have been with Sheila that night (Sheila)
But by the time they found me I'd be beside my Sheila
Sheila

I knew that something was wrong when I picked up the phone
Her father's voice was shaking when he said she'd never made it home
I ran outside and it started to rain
It felt like Sheila's and that's when
I knew I'd never see my Sheila again

Why did he take her away from me? (Sheila)
He couldn't love her, couldn't love her any more than me (Sheila)
I should have been with Sheila that night (Sheila)
But by the time they found me I'd be beside my Sheila

Sheila, Sheila, Sheila, oh oh oh oh
Sheila, Sheila, Sheila, oh oh oh oh

Why did he take her away from me? (Sheila)
He couldn't love her, couldn't love her any more than me (Sheila)
I should have been with Sheila that night (Sheila)
But by the time they found me I'd be beside my Sheila

Sheila, Sheila, Sheila, oh oh oh oh
Sheila, Sheila, Sheila, oh
Sheila
