Lyrics

Capo 2.fret?
G c c/b
You sure looked good bound for shilburn town
G c c/b am
Tryin' to drive the car while the rain came down

And you sure looked fine
D
Yeah readin' highway signs

And you sure looked good up on crystal beach
Reelin' in them fish with your hair all bleached
And you sure looked fine
Oh, yeah with your hooks and line

La da di da dum la da di da day
Every move you make, everything that you say
You sure are fine
Oh yeah and you blow my mind

And you sure looked good out at rainbow falls
Pass the parking lots and the crowded malls, yeah
And you sure looked fine
Yeah, underneath them pines

La da di da dum la da di da day
Every move you make, everything that you say
You sure are fine
Oh, yeah and you blow my mind

You sure look good down in ol' canton
With your new blue dress and your lipstick on
And you sure look fine
Yeah drinkin' cheap red wine

And you sure look good down in "meisha-shay"
With your reindeer eyes upon christmas day
And you sure looked fine
Oh babe like a valentine

La da di da dum la da di da day
Every move you make, everything you say
Well you sure are fine
Oh yeah and you blow my mind
