Smart woman (in a real short skirt)
By: jimmy buffett, marshall chapman
1988
This song is about being in my 40s in the 80s. it seems Im learing more than Im forgetting.
-- spoken:
"so I told her, ooh you got money of your own? well, that gives me the urge to merge."
Bimbo limbo is where Ive been
I know you know that its wearing me thin
The times are changing, and its about time
Im rearrangin all the guilt in my mind
Chorus:
Im looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman thatll take me home
Take me home
Im not your macho kind of guy
But I can be so when Im feeling shy
Hey, baby, whered you get your good looks
Ooh, babe, I want to carry your books
Chorus:
Im looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman thatll take me home
Take me home
Beauty and brains (beauty and brains)
Best of both worlds (best of both worlds)
Think I can change (think I can change)
If youll be my, be my, be my girl
Chorus:
Im looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman thatll take me home
Take me home
Chorus:
Im looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt
Smart woman who knows how to flirt
Smart woman got a mind of her own
Smart woman better take me home
Take me home
