Lyrics
… All right… I’ve been thumbing rides, travelling lightWalking streets ’til past midnightTramping roads, trails, and lanesScaling cliffs, fields, and plainsSearching ’til the early dawnFor that long-legged girl with the short dress on… Riding trucks, bikes, and skisSailing lakes and brooks and seasDriving wagons, cars, and jeepsWalking stilts in ten foot leapsSearching ’til the early dawnFor that long-legged girl with the short dress onAnd everywhere I go, she’s been and gone… She’s fine (she’s fine)It’s just too bad she’s the travelling kindSo fine (so fine)I just can’t rest ’til I make her mine… I’ve been from Maine to TennesseeMexico and WaikikiRain or shine, sleet or snowSearching high, then I’m searching lowEverything depends uponFor that long-legged girl with the short dress on… She’s fine (she’s fine)It’s just too bad she’s the travelling kindSo fine (so fine)I just can’t rest ’til I make her mine… Well, I’ve been from Maine to TennesseeMexico and WaikikiRain or shine, sleet or snowI’m searching high, well, I’m searching low‘Cause everything depends uponFor that long-legged girl with the short dress onThe long-legged girl with the short dress on
