Jimmy Buffett — Mermaid In The Night

[Verse 1] 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 kick 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 [Chorus] 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'a a mermaid in the night [Verse 2] She's got a set of gills like no fish I've ever seen Long blond 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 [Chorus] 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 [Outro] I think I'll have the catch of the day
