Lyrics

She came down from Cincinnati

It took her three days on a train

Looking for some peace and quiet

Hoped to see the sun again

But now, she lives down by the ocean

She's taking care to look for sharks

They hang out in the local bars

And they feed right after dark

Can't you feel them circling, honey? (Ooh-ooh)

Can't you feel them swimming around?

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only bait in town

Oh-whoa, oh-whoa

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only girl in town

She's saving up all of her money

Wants to hit it south in May

Maybe roll in the sand with a rock 'n' roll man

Somewhere down Monserat Way

But the money's good and the season

Helps to lighten up her load

Boys keep her high as the months go by

She's getting post cards from the road

Can't you feel 'em closing in, honey? (Ooh-ooh)

Can't you feel 'em schooling around?

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only girl in town

Sailed off to Antigua

It took her three days on a boat

Looking for some peace and quiet

Maybe keep her dreams afloat

But now, she feels like a remora

Cross the school still close at hand

Just behind the reef are the big white teeth

Of the sharks that can swim on the land

Can't you feel 'em circling, honey? (Ooh-ooh)

Can't you feel 'em schoolin' around?

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only bait in town

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only girl in town
