John Mellencamp — Miami

Well, I hear in Miami they have a lot of girls Who toast their flesh in the sun Living on allowances they receive from the old man at home To keep up appearances to have fun Ooh baby, living in Miami I know you're hip to those hotel alibis I know you're nowhere near twenty But I ain't the kind to kiss and tell or tell lies They are easy to look at, harder to hold They have high opinions of themselves But at night you can find them drinking in the bar Wishing that they could find somebody else Ooh baby, living in Miami I know you're hip to those hotel alibis I know you're nowhere near twenty But I ain't the kind to kiss and tell or tell lies Well, they pull and tug on their high fashion clothes That feel restless in the dark As they strip off their armor in their apartment bedrooms They wish that somewhere they can find a spark Well, their sights and visions and dreams are set high They think the world can be won with a smile I hear 'em giggle out loud, lost in the crowd Give me a cuddle when we get outside Ooh baby, living in Miami I know you're hip to those hotel alibis I know you're nowhere near twenty But I ain't the kind to kiss and tell or tell lies
