The other night, I had a dream

I was dying in desert sand

and then above watching over me

stood an angel with a golden hand



(chorus)

singing Sheila Sheila, Sheila Sheila

screeling and a reeling

Sheila Sheila, Sheila Sheila, Sheila Sheila

my heart she was stealing



living here in this old town

there ain't a lot to do

and after work I just ride around

looking out for something new

when I saw you standing in a drugstore

trying on your diamond ring

had to run in jujp through the front door

grab your hand and start to sing about



(repeat chorus)



She don't run, she don't hide

Sheila thinks that everyone is beautiful inside



Sheila put your red dress on and let your long hair down

we're gonna make them turn the lights on

on the hill at the edge of town

I was lost and on my own I was lost and broken down

and when you sing that old Shirelle song

I'm the king with the golden crown



singing na na na na oh sheila sheila (say 3 times)



Sheila's inside of the night, trying to take me into the light(4 or more times)
