38 Special – Little Sheba Lyrics

I took a business trip
Down to Florida
I got a room at a Holiday Inn
There was an earthquake in California
Must be the reason why this place was shakin? Down in the barroom it was
Loaded with servicemen
Elbow to elbow
I said: "Scuze me blood,
Just what is shakin?"
He say, "Girls on the dance floor
Wrestling in jello"
And the joint was jammin? From the pumpin'by the D.J.
They were rappin'and clappin?
When up steps Little Sheba

Chorus:

Little Sheba sheæ?¯ as tough as you find
Sheæ?¯ the local color burnin'like a Florida Pine
They raise the girls on gator down here
Doncha know
Little sheba sheæ?¯ the favorite one
Everybodyæ?¯ got money on her 9 to 1
They raise the girls on gator down here
Doncha know

Into the ring steps her worthy opponent
A nasty little vixen with a New York vibe
Before Little Sheba could say,
"Welcome to Dixie"
Sheæ?? kick all her buttons
And punched out her headlights
And the crowd was reelin?
They were chomping and chanting
They canæ?° believe what theyæ?®e seein? Didnæ?° look good for Little Sheba

Chorus

Now to make a long story
Just a little bit longer
Little Sheba was humbled on that humid night
She returned from emergency
With a fistfull of fractures
Our fabled femme fatale
Spoilin'for another fight

Chorus
