Aretha Franklin - The Sha-La Bandit lyrics

Sha la la la, la, la, baby
Sha la la la, la, la
Sha la la la, la, la, baby
Sha la la la, la, la

Girls, beware of the bandit
From Westchester County
I can’t offer you no reward
'cause all he left me was a broken heart
He kidnapped me excitingly
And then he robbed me off my dignity
And when enough of his time had been spent
He left me
(Sha la la la, la) moaning (Sha la la la
La) yeah he left me
(Sha la la la, la) moan, moaning
(Sha la la la, la) Yes, he did hey
Be careful, my sisters
Yeah - he’s armed with an innocent smile
With a dangerous love record that can
Stretch for miles and miles
Hey, girls! Take a hint -
He don’t leave no fingerprints
And if he gets his hands on you
He’s gonna leave you
(Sha la la la, la) Wanting (Sha
La la la, la) Yes, he will
And he'll leave you
(Sha la la la, la) Moan, moaning
(Sha la la la, la) Oh, yeah yeah

Any female information concernin'
This bandit person
He may be sitting right next to you
And Westchester County is right there too
Hey, girls! I've got a confession to make
If they put that bandit in jail:
I’ll be the first one to go on his bail

He left me (Sha la la la, la) Wanting, oh
Yeah (Sha la la la
La) I'm a wanted woman this evening
He left me
