Album: The River

Sherry Darling

Your mama's yapping in the backseat
Tell her to push over and move them big feet
Every Monday morning I gotta drive her done to the unemployment agency
Well this morning I ain't fighting tell her I give up
Tell her she wins if she'll just shut up
But it's the last time that she's gonna be riding with me

You can tell her there's a hot sun beating on the black top
She keeps talking she'll be walking that last block
She can take a subway back to the ghetto tonight

Well I got some beer and the highway's free
And I got you and baby you've got me
Hey, hey, hey, what you say Sherry Darling

Now there's girls melting on the beach
And they're so fine but so out of reach
Cause I'm stuck in traffic down here on 53rd Street
Now Sherry my love for you is real
But I didn't count on this package deal
And baby this car just ain't big enough for her and me

So you can tell her there's a hot sun beating on the black top
She keeps talking she'll be walking that last block

She can take a subway back to the ghetto tonight
Well I got some beer and the highway's free
And I got you and baby you've got me
Hey, hey, hey, what you say Sherry Darling

Well let there be sunlight let there be rain
Let the brokenhearted love again
Sherry we could run with our arms open wide before the tide
To all the girls down at Sacred Heart
And all you operators back in the park
Say hey, hey, hey, what you say Sherry Darling
Hey hey hey, what you say Sherry Darling
