Greg Kihn Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You'll know it when you see her
Blue eyes and a poney tail
Her cheeks are rosey, she looks a little nosey
Man this little girl is fine
Never met a girl
Like my little Sheila
Sweet little girl, that's my little Sheila
Man this little girl is fine
When me and Sheila go for a ride
I, I, I, I, I feel funny inside
When my little Sheila whispers in my ear
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I love you Sheila dear
She even said she loved me
She said she'd never leave me
True love will never die
We sit down on that beach, just being right together
Man this little girl is fine
Alright!
Sweet little Sheila! (4x)
Oh,oh, little Sheila (Sweet little Sheila)
Sweet little Sheila (3x)
Oh, oh yeah!
