Jimmy Buffett - Smart Woman
Smart woman (in a real short skirt)
By: jimmy buffett, marshall chapman
1988
This song is about being in my 40’s in the 80’s. it seems I’m learing more than I’m 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 I’ve been
I know you know that it’s wearing me thin
The times are changing, and it’s about time
I’m rearrangin’ all the guilt in my mind
Chorus:
I’m 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 that’ll take me home
Take me home
I’m not your macho kind of guy
But I can be so when I’m feeling shy
Hey, baby, where’d you get your good looks
Ooh, babe, I want to carry your books
Chorus:
I’m 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 that’ll 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 you’ll be my, be my, be my girl
Chorus:
I’m 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 that’ll take me home
Take me home
Chorus:
I’m 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
