She don't cause a scene
She don't cry in bars
She won't touch news
She won't take it too far
She's salt of the earth
And she kinda talks
Just like your mama
And that's a cherry on top
She's grenadine
She's everything
I'll never be not even a little
Shirley Temple
Sweet and simple
And you're drinking it up
I'm a pistol
Accidentally saying too much
Cause it's killing me to keep watching you
Keep wishing it was love
While you're sipping Shirley Temples
And wondering why you can't catch a buzz
I'll shoot you straight
I'll call you out
But you'll acquire a taste
After a round or two
Or ten
We could leave in a hurry
But don't you worry
She'll get over it surely
Temple
Sweet and simple
And you're drinking it up
I'm a pistol
Accidentally saying too much
Cause it's killing me to keep watching you
Keep wishing it was love
While you're sipping Shirley Temples
And wondering why you can't catch a buzz
Oh, you can't catch a buzz
She's everything
I'll never be not even a little
Surely temple sweet and simple
But it's never enough
I'm a pistol
Accidentally saying too much
Cause it's killing me to keep watching you
Keep wishing it was love
Why you're sipping Shirley Temples
And wondering why you can't catch a bus
Oh, you can't catch a bus
