Stuart Marty - Arlene Lyrics

Rollin' down the highway, runnin' by the cotton fields

Saw a sign I know I want to see again

Pretty young woman wearing skin-tight britches

And a t-shirt wetter than a snakeskin

Somebody said her name was Arlene

And her daddy is a shotgun toting kind of country man

I just said "what was that name again"

Ain't nobody gonna scare me away

Gonna hold my breath till I take her away



Arlene, hey are you comin' into town

Arlene, don't let your daddy tie you down

When you're sneaking out that window baby

Don't you make a sound

Do you want to boogie, are you into fool, fool, foolin' around



Well daddy ain't a working, he's a sitting in lawn chair

Chewin on a mighty plug of Redman

Pretty as a picture and he's got her chopping cotton

Like a convict sweating on a chain gang

Somebody oughta break her out of that scene

She's enough to make you wanna do the old man in

Hey, what was that name again

Ain't no use in tryin' to settle me down

I'm a fool, I'm a downright clown clown for Arlene



Arlene, hey are you comin' into town

Arlene, don't let your daddy tie you down

When you're sneaking out that window baby

Don't you make a sound

Do you want to boogie, are you into fool, fool, foolin' around



Sitting in a bacco patch feeling like a weasel

I'm a waitin' on the lights to go dim

Wonderin' if my backside might be full of bullet shots

Before she gets away from him

Ain't nobody gonna scare me away

Gonna hold my breath till I take her away



(Repeat chorus)



When you're sneaking out that window baby

Don't you make a sound

Do you want to boogie, are you into fool, fool, foolin' around

Come on Arlene

I see you got that red dress on

This is it
