lyrics
Oh Sandy.
It's the colour of your eyes,
how you take me by surprise.
Oh Sandy.
Oh Sandy.
It's how your hips move,
momma won't approve.
Oh Sandy.
Oh Sandy
It's the wind in your hair,
looks like you don't even care.
Oh Sandy.
Oh Sandy pass on by,
don't stop in this town.
Go somewhere else where you won't drag anybody down.
Oh Sandy.
I'm not coming with you,
so don't even ask me to.
Oh Sandy.
Oh Sandy.
Don't tap on my window,
don't knock on my door.
I told you before.
Oh sandy pass on by,
don't stop in this town.
Go somewhere else where you won't drag anybody down.
You say you'll take away everything I've got.
Don't leave me here stranded with nothing left,
just you on my mind with the wind on my back,
holding on tight with all that I have.
Oh Sandy pass on by,
don't stop in this town.
Go somewhere else where you won't drag anybody down.
So Sandy, You're not welcome round here,
don't stop in this town,
don't stop in this town.
Oh Sandy.
