Lyrics for Album: The 70s Anthology [2002]
(Jerry Lang Ferguson, Wade Davis Sr.)
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la, la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la, la
[Mary]
Girls, beware of the bandit
From Westchester County
I can't offer you no reward
'Cause all he left me was a broken heart
He kidnapped me excitingly
Then he round me up my dignity
And when enough of his time was spent,
He left me wanting more
Sha-la-la (sha-la-la-la-la)
He left me wanting more
Sha-la-la (sha-la-la-la-la, la)
[Cindy]
Be careful, my sisters (be careful, my sisters)
He's armed with an innocent smile
With his dangerous love record
That can stretched for miles and miles
Hey, girls... you ought a take a hint
'Cause he won't leave no fingerprints
And when he gets his hands on you,
He'll gonna have you wanting more
Sha-la-la-la (sha-la-la-la-la)
He'll have you wanting (la) more
Sha-la-la-la (sha-la-la-la-la, la)
[interlude]
[Scherrie]
For your female inforrmation,
You might be in the same situation
He might be sitting right next to you
Westchester County is right there, too
Hey, girls... I got a confession to make
If they put that bandit in jail,
I'm gonna jump right in his cell
There's something about his (sha-la-la-la-la)
Sha-la-la, ahhh, yeah (sha-la-la-la-la)
The way he makes me groove, oo-oo-ooh
(sha-la-la-la-la)
There's something about his (sha-la-la-la-la)
Sha-la-la-la-la, yeah (sha-la-la-la-la)
The way he makes me groove
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la, la
Sha-la-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la-la, la
(repeat til fade)
