Mighty Sparrow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sha la la la
Sha la la la
She's crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind.
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la
Crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la.

The kinda girl who really loves to dance
She loves to mess around with her friends
Wanna love her now, wanna love her now
I wanna make her be my girl

She likes to give a smile to any stranger
She loves to get her ass in any danger
Wanna love her now, wanna love her now
I wanna make her be my girl

She's crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind.
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la
Crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la.

She likes to run from troubles in her high heels
She loves McDonalds and she hates Beverly Hills
Wanna love her now, wanna love her now




I wanna wanna make her make her be my girl

Her heartless friends are on the floor
She loves to dance and fall asleep alone
Wanna love her now, wanna love her now
I wanna make her be my girl baby

She's crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind.
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la
Crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la.
She's crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind.
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la
Crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la.
Sha la la la
Sha la la la
Crazy, but she's mine.
Damn I lose my mind
She's dancing every night, singing sha-la-la-la-la.
