Lyrics for Sherry Darling
Your Mama's yappin' in the back seat Tell her to push over and move them big feet Every Monday morning I gotta drive her down to the unemployment agency Well, this morning, I ain't fighting, tell her I give up Tell her she wins if she'll just shut up But it's the last time that she's gonna be ridin' with me And you can tell her there's a hot sun beatin' on the black top She keeps talkin', she'll be walkin' that last block She can take a subway back to the ghetto tonight Well, I got some beer and the highway's free And I got you, and baby, you've got me Hey, hey, hey, what you say, Sherry darling? Now there's girls meltin' on the beach And they're so fine but so far out of reach 'Cause I'm stuck in traffic down here on 53rd street Now Sherry, my love for you is real But I didn't count on this package deal And baby, this car just ain't big enough for her and me So you can tell her there's a hot sun beatin' on the black top She keeps talkin', she'll be walkin' that last block She can take a subway back to the ghetto tonight Well, I got some beer and the highway's free And I got you, and baby you've got me Hey, hey, hey, what you say, Sherry darling? Well, let there be sunlight, let there be rain Let the brokenhearted love again Sherry, we can run with our arms open before the tide To all the girls down at Sacred Heart And all you operators back in the park Say hey, hey, hey, what you say, Sherry darling? Say hey, hey, hey, what you say, Sherry darling? Oh, come on Say hey, hey, hey, what you say, Sherry darling?
