SHARI GIRL / YOU'LL ALWAYS BE A BABY TO ME
w&m by Dana Countryman
Do you remember when we were kids,
all of the crazy things that we did?
Inner tube rides in the falling snow,
it just doesn't seem like that long ago
We've been close to each other
I'll always be your big brother
And no matter how old you may be,
you'll always be a baby to me
Looking back on those memories,
when our lives were simple and free
I kinda wish we were still kids today
And maybe it's wrong, but I feel that way
Shari, you've really grown up
Now the boys have all shown up,
like bees to a buttercup in the spring
And all the boys sing
Shari, Oh, won't you come and play?
Shari, it's such a sunny day,
Shari, I'd love to spend it with you
There's nothin' I'd rather do
Maybe, we'll head down to the park
Maybe, we won't come home 'till dark
Maybe, I'll fall in love with you
I'll travel this world, but I won't find a girl like my Shari girl
(Shari girl, He's in love with his Shari girl)
But why should I roam when you're right here at home in my arms?
(Shari girl, Shari girl)
Right where you belong
(That's why I sing about)
Shari, I'm filled with so much pride
Shari, when you're here by my side
Shari, you make my dreams come true
Don't you ever go, for goodness sake
My world would end, and my heart would break
Oh, Shari, (Be careful with her, Mister)
Shari, (Don't hurt my little sister)
Shari, you'll always be a baby to me
This artist remains a mystery. He never performs live in concert, these days. Deeply allergic to hip-hop and most modern radio sounds, he stays happy in his retro pop world.
