760
Sherbet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ready to roll

It was there in Galveston
I first saw her there
She sure was doin′ it up
Undoing her hair

It's a murky old blue world
She′d be a can do girl
Murky old blue world
She'd be a can do girl

Out here you feel ever mile
You feel ever yard
Leaving love alone
I've been kicking myself
And I′ve been kicking hard

Flashing a pan
Making such a blue swirl
She was my can do girl
She was my can do girl
Can do

Man I was feeling half past gone
When we hit Livingston
Finding her there at the counter
Of the TTT

Flashing a pan
Making such a beautiful blue swirl
She′d be a can do girl




My can do girl
My can do girl
