I love a lady she lives down by the seashore
I love a lady she lives down by the bay
I love a lady she lives down by the seashore
I love a lady she won't tell me her name
And I say hey now why won't you tell me
I say hey now what do I do
And I say hey now why won't you tell me
I say hey now what do I do
I saw a lady and I took her some flowers
I saw a lady and I knew just what to say
I saw a lady and we talk there for hours
I saw a lady but she won't tell me her name
And I say hey now why won't you tell me
I say hey now what would I do
I say hey now why won't you tell me
Hey now what do I do
What I wanna know she won't tell me
She won't give me what I need
I can't stand all this waiting
Come on baby won't you please
I want a lady and I know how to get it
I want a lady though she don't feel the same
I'm on a bottle of reef dropped down on my knee
She's gonna smile and then
she's gonna tell me her name
And I say hey now she's gonna tell me
I say hey now it's gonna come true
And I say hey now she's gonna tell me
She'll say hey now boy I wanna marry you
