Miami

Well I hear in Miami they have a lot of girls
Who toast their flesh in the sun
Livin' on allowances they receive from the old man at home
To keep up appearances to have fun

Ooh, baby, livin' in Miami
I know you're hip to those hotel alibis
I know you're nowhere near twenty
But I ain't the kind to kiss and tell or tell lies

They are easy to look at, hard to hold
They have high opinions of themselves
But at night you can find them drinkin' in the bar
Wishin' that they could find somebody else

Ooh baby, livin' in Miami
I know you're hip to those hotel alibis
I know you're nowhere near twenty
But I ain't the kind to kiss and tell or tell lies

Well they pull and tug on their high fashion clothes
They feel restless in the dark
As they strip off their armor in their apartment bedrooms
They wish that somewhere they could find a spark

Well their sights and visions and dreams are set high
They think the world can be won with a smile
I hear 'em giggle out loud, lost in the crowd
Give me a cuddle when we get outside

Ooh baby, livin' in Miami
I know you're hip to those hotel alibis
I know you're nowhere near twenty
I ain't the kind to kiss and tell, or tell lies
