Lyrics

I’m a young barracuda, swimming in the deep blue sea
I’m a mean barracuda - don't ya mess with me
I’m lonely, baby, and I’m starved for some of your love
Ah, sweet thing, you’re just what I’ve been thinking of
I’m a young barracuda, and I need someone to blow my mind
I’ve been gone for so long that I need someone who won’t waste time
I’ve been stoking a furnace on a tanker just to get on home
And I need you, baby, 'cos I'm tired of playing alone
Barracuda, barracuda from the sea, yeah
Swim baby, 'cos this barracuda's gonna come after me
Young barracuda, swimming after young new love, yeah
A mean barracuda who just can’t get enough
I said I’m hungry
Don’t you hear what I say?
I said I need you baby
Night and day
I've been gone for so long
I said I need someone
And it might as well be you, baby
I need, need you, yeah yeah, I need you
I need it, baby
You know what I mean, I said I need it, need it
Need it, need it, baby need it bad
I need you
Gotta have some of your love
Oh, that I never had
Come on gimme, gimme baby
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, baby
It feels so fine
One more time
Come on Dig, baby, dig, yeah yeah
Dig baby, yeah yeah
Ya got it, baby
Ah you got it baby (ummm)
Shake shake shake shake shake shake
