Don't look at me don't touch me Keep your mind straight ahead Don't get no funny ideas about we Or you'll wish you were dead That's what I am thinking she must be thinking The girl I spent fifty three bucks on last night She give me a look from the corner of her eye That says, "Boy, keep acting right" How surprised was I When she leaned over and whispered in my ear Get a leg up Get a leg over boy Get a leg up What's the matter Are you shy, shy, shy? I'm pretty good with first impressions But sometimes I'm not always right I pulled the car to the shoulder of the road To see what she had in mind Want me to spend the night Hey lover boy you know I will And my best girlfriend lives down the road Together we will thrill ya And I'm thinking to myself I could be lucky Pierre tonight If I could get a leg up If I could get a leg over boy You know I ain't that handsome But you know I ain't shy, shy, shy The rest of the night we went on and on And the moral to this song Don't go making hasty judgements Because sometimes they could be wrong Nothing wrong with a good time Just keep yourself protected make a list And you can bet your life that the women don´t know The little girls are acting like this So the next time a young one moves up And she whispers in your ear Get a leg up Get a leg over boy Get a leg up What's the matter Now don't you be shy, shy, shy? Get a leg up Get a leg over boy Get a leg up What's the matter Now don't you be shy, shy, shy?
