She came down from Cincinnati

It took her three days on the train

Lookin' for some peace and quiet

Hoped to see the sun again But now she lives down by the ocean

She's takin' care to look for sharks

They hang out in the local bars

And they feed right after dark Chorus:

Can't you feel 'em circlin', honey

Can't you feel 'em swimmin' around

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only bait in town

Oh oh

Oh oh

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only girl in town She's saving up all of her money

Wants to head it south in May

Maybe roll in the sand with a rock 'n' roll man

Somewhere down Montserrat way But the money's good in the season

Helps to lighten up her load

Boys keep her high as the months go by

She's getting postcards from the road Chorus:

Can't you feel 'em closin' in, honey

Can't you feel 'em schoolin' around

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only girl in town Sailed off to Antigua

It took her three days on a boat

Lookin' for some peace and quiet

Maybe keep her dreams afloat But now she feels like a remora

'Cause the school's still close at hand

Just behind the reef are the big white teeth

Of the sharks that can swim on the land Chorus:

Can't you feel 'em circlin', honey

Can't you feel 'em schoolin' around

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only bait in town

You got fins to the left, fins to the right

And you're the only girl in town
