Lyrics:

Smart Woman (In A Real Short Skirt)

By: Jimmy Buffett, Marshall Chapman

1988

This song is about being in my 40's in the 80's. It seems I'm learing more than I'm forgetting.

-- Spoken:

'So I told her, ooh you got money of your own? Well, that gives me the urge to merge.'



Bimbo limbo is where I've been

I know you know that it's wearing me thin

The times are changing, and it's about time

I'm rearrangin' all the guilt in my mind



Chorus:

I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt

Smart woman who knows how to flirt

Smart woman got a mind of her own

Smart woman that'll take me home

Take me home



I'm not your macho kind of guy

But I can be so when I'm feeling shy

Hey, baby, where'd you get your good looks

Ooh, babe, I want to carry your books



Chorus:

I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt

Smart woman who knows how to flirt

Smart woman got a mind of her own

Smart woman that'll take me home

Take me home



Beauty and brains (beauty and brains)

Best of both worlds (best of both worlds)

Think I can change (think I can change)

If you'll be my, be my, be my girl



Chorus:

I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt

Smart woman who knows how to flirt

Smart woman got a mind of her own

Smart woman that'll take me home

Take me home



Chorus:

I'm looking for a smart woman in a real short skirt

Smart woman who knows how to flirt

Smart woman got a mind of her own

Smart woman better take me home

Take me home
