Local Girls

(альбом: My Life - 2006)

Oh, I was kicked back in a rented cabana
Easing my mind with some old Carlos Santana
Nibbling on banana moon pie
When I swore I saw an angel from Heaven floating by
Then I thought: "No, no way: she must be from around here"
She got one of those tans you just know she wears all year
Swaying, sashaying, flip-flopping along
Like wherever she may be is right where she belongs

An' I thought: "Ooh, I love the local girls"
"Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
"I love the local girls
"Lo, lo, local; lo, lo, local; lo, lo, local girls"

I said: "Madam, if you have nowhere to go
"Can I interest you in an ice-cold Pacifico?"
An' she said: "As luck would have it
"I got nothing but time"
She reached in her back-pack
Said: "Down here you'll find
"That a lady don't leave home
"Without a couple of limes"

An' I said: "Ooh, I love the local girls"
"Oh, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
"I love the local girls
"Lo, lo, local; lo, lo, local; lo, lo, local girls"

Later on she took me to this bar built out of cinder blocks
One of those joints with a notice to shell park in line
While we were dancing, she whispered: "I like you a lot"
An' I said: "My, my, my, go on: say that one more time"

Five years later, here I am intermittent
With a couple a-toaheads as that big ol' orange sun is setting
I can't believe how good it's stuill getting
As I watch my daughters splashing in the water

An' I thought: "Ooh, I love the local girls"
"Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
"I love the local girls
(Here she come, now)
"Lo, lo, local; (Hey)
"Lo, lo, local; (Here she come, now)
"Lo, lo, local girls
"Lo, lo, local; (Ooh)
"Lo, lo, local; (Whoo)
I love the local girls
"Lo, lo, local; lo, lo, local
I love the local girls
I love the local girls
I love the local girls...
