This Girl Gets Around

Album: Footloose Soundtrack (1984)

  • Well, she'd like you to think she was born yesterday
    With her innocent looks and her little town ways
    When she's smiling at me, she's got angels in her eyes
    But I've seen how she moves and the girl really cooks
    And she's taught me some tricks that you can't learn in books
    And I'm starting to think there's a devil there inside

    Well, I'm not just a boy who believes what he sees
    But she's got a kiss, brings me down to my knees
    Over and over, I never get my fill
    And she might try to talk like she's pure as the snow
    She blushes a lot, but she'll never say no
    When her motor is running, this girl don't sit still

    (Chorus)
    The girl gets around
    She knows what she likes
    I got what she needs
    And one of these nights
    We'll both make our moves
    We'll cover some ground
    The girl gets around
    Good God, the girl gets around

    Well she holds me so tight and she whispers so sweet
    But she knows all the names of the guys on the street
    She broke hundreds of hearts, but I won't be that blind
