Shelly's Boyfriend Songtext
von Bonnie Hayes with the Wild Combo

Shelly, look, you got a boyfriend
Don′t let your boyfriend put you down
Shelly, you know he's just a boy
Keep looking ′till you're found, yeah, yeah
Sha-sha, sha-sha-sha

You're wearing his ID, he took you out Friday
Drinking gin at the drive-in movie you′d been wanting to see
It was not all that they led you to believe it would be
So you head back down to the black and white boulevard
Waiting at the corner while they all get in the car and leave
It was not the night you planned it to be, no, no, no

Shelly, look, you got a boyfriend
Don′t let your boyfriend put you down
Shelly, you know he's just a boy
Keep looking ′till you're found, yeah, yeah
Sha-sha, sha-sha-sha


At the Burger King lot, the Dairy Queen makes a fuss
Looks him over once while you act like you just don′t see
It was not all that you led him to believe it would be
He takes what he sells, he tells you wait here
Get your face on straight, in the rear-view mirror, you can see
He is not the boy his mama always wanted him to be

Yeah, yeah
(Watch it! Here he comes)
(Is that him?) Sha-sha, sha-sha-sha
(Susie said he was a blonde)
(God, he's a total babe!)
(Hey, Shelly!)
Sha-sha, sha-sha (get him!)

Shelly, you′re a wild one, you're at the wild age
You want a while to run, you need a while until you see
You are so much more than mom always wanted you to be

Oh, girls will be girls and boys will be boyfriends
You go around the world, Shelly, in the end you will see
It is not all that they led us to believe it would be

Shelly, look, you got a boyfriend
Don't let your boyfriend put you down
Shelly, you know he′s just a boy
Keep looking ′till you're found, yeah, yeah


Keep looking ′till you're found
Don′t stop looking 'till you′re found, yeah, yeah
Sha-sha, sha-sha-sha
Don't stop looking 'till you′re found, yeah, yeah
Sha-sha, sha-sha-sha
Don′t stop looking 'till you′re found, yeah, yeah
Sha-sha, sha-sha-sha
Don't stop looking ′till you're found
