"Mermaid In The Night" lyrics
"Mermaid In The Night"
I went out fishin' on a sandy beach
Cast my line out as far as it would reach
Lookin' for somethin' for the fryin' pan
I kicked back with a beer in my hand
I must've got a big one, 'cause it's bendin' my pole
I'm havin' to fight just to keep control
It could be a whale, God only knows
Whatever it is, it's not wearin' any clothes
She's larger than life, made from holy water
She's covered in green and got little scales upon her
She's larger than life
She's a mermaid in the night
She's got a set of gills like no fish I've ever seen
Long blonde hair and a tail in-between
I'm in love with a creature from the sea
She brings out the crustacean in me
Her voice is a temptation, it's a siren song
When we kiss, there can be no wrong
I ask her to marry me and be my wife
Do the backstroke the rest of our lives
She's larger than life, made from holy water
She's covered in green, she's got little scales upon her
She's larger than life
She's a mermaid in the night
She's larger than life, made from holy water
She's covered in green and got little scales upon her
She's larger than life
She's a mermaid in the night
Mermaid in the night
Little mermaid in the night
I think I'll have the catch of the day
