Long Legged Girl (With the Short Dress On)
All right
I've been thumbing rides, travelling light
Walking streets 'til past midnight
Tramping roads, trails, and lanes
Scaling cliffs, fields, and plains
Searching 'til the early dawn
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
Riding trucks, bikes, and skis
Sailing lakes and brooks and seas
Driving wagons, cars, and jeeps
Walking stilts in ten foot leaps
Searching 'til the early dawn
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
And everywhere I go, she's been and gone
She's fine (she's fine)
It's just too bad she's the travelling kind
So fine (so fine)
I just can't rest 'til I make her mine
I've been from Maine to Tennessee
Mexico and Waikiki
Rain or shine, sleet or snow
Searching high, then I'm searching low
Everything depends upon
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
She's fine (she's fine)
It's just too bad she's the travelling kind
So fine (so fine)
I just can't rest 'til I make her mine
Well, I've been from Maine to Tennessee
Mexico and Waikiki
Rain or shine, sleet or snow
I'm searching high, well, I'm searching low
'Cause everything depends upon
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
The long-legged girl with the short dress on
I've been thumbing rides, travelling light
Walking streets 'til past midnight
Tramping roads, trails, and lanes
Scaling cliffs, fields, and plains
Searching 'til the early dawn
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
Riding trucks, bikes, and skis
Sailing lakes and brooks and seas
Driving wagons, cars, and jeeps
Walking stilts in ten foot leaps
Searching 'til the early dawn
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
And everywhere I go, she's been and gone
She's fine (she's fine)
It's just too bad she's the travelling kind
So fine (so fine)
I just can't rest 'til I make her mine
I've been from Maine to Tennessee
Mexico and Waikiki
Rain or shine, sleet or snow
Searching high, then I'm searching low
Everything depends upon
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
She's fine (she's fine)
It's just too bad she's the travelling kind
So fine (so fine)
I just can't rest 'til I make her mine
Well, I've been from Maine to Tennessee
Mexico and Waikiki
Rain or shine, sleet or snow
I'm searching high, well, I'm searching low
'Cause everything depends upon
For that long-legged girl with the short dress on
The long-legged girl with the short dress on
