V1
She?s a six-string baby
She?ll sing lead
I thought I saw her
Stare at me
Flippin? her hair
And some swayin? hips
Glancing at
Her midriff
Rockin? at the club
Have you seen her yet?
She?s a six-string baby, yeah

V2
With bodies packed in here
Tonight
Red, silk scarves draped
From the mic
Guitars scream
Amps hummin? onstage
Walkin? bass and
Keys play
Thrashin? on the drums
Have you heard her yet?
She?s a six-string baby, yeah

Ch
Well, the crowd goes crazy now
With her face in the light
Peel off some clothes with hot, drippin? sweat
Let the guys imagine ?cause no way they?d get her

V3
She?s a six-string baby
I want more
Demanding an
Encore
Stick around ?til the
End of the show
I wonder if
She knows
All I want is a kiss right
In her bed
She?s a six-string baby, yeah

Ch
Well, the crowd goes crazy now
With her face in the light
Peel off some clothes with hot, drippin? sweat
Let the guys imagine ?cause no way they?d get her
She?s a six-string baby, yeah
She?s a six-string baby, yeah
