I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
A love that will survive
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
Yeah, waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
Lived a girl that I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame
Polk salad Annie
'Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
What a mean, vicious woman
The king is gone but he's not forgotten
This is the story of Johnny Rotten
It's better to burn out than it is to rust
The king is gone but he's not forgotten
I, well, I wish I could swim
Like dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing will keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
We can be heroes just for one day
What'd you say?
If you leave me now
You'll take away the biggest part of me
Ooh, no, baby, please don't go
And if you leave me now
You'll take away the very heart of me
Ooh, no, baby, please don't go
Ooh, girl, I just want you to stay
They've forgotten all about God
He's the only reason we exist
Yet you were the one that they said was so weird
All those years ago
You said it all though not many had ears
All those years ago
You had control of our smiles and our tears
All those years ago
On the lake where drooped the willow
Long time ago
Where the rock threw back the billow
Brighter than snow
Dwelt a maid beloved and cherished
By high and low
But with autumn leaf she perished
Long time ago
