This is an excellent song that just didn't get enough airplay. Can anybody
remember a girl like this. It draws an instant image in my mind.

INTRO A E E A
[A]She's been here workin all summer [E]long

Boys from town [E7]hang around her paPA's place

[A]Hey, you can see her at the boat [E]dock
Walkin up the pier in her flip [A]flops
Tying up lines to her tank [E]top
Dipping for bait in the [A]bait shop
