Ooh my little pretty one, pretty one. 
When you gonna give me some time, Sharona?
Ooh you make my motor run, my motor run. 
Gun it comin' off the line Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up. 
Such a dirty mind. Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...

Come a little closer huh, ah will ya huh. 
Close enough to look in my eyes, Sharona.
Keeping it a mystery gets to me
Running down the length of my thighs, Sharona
Never gonna stop, give it up. Such a dirty mind. 
Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...

When you gonna give it to me, give it to me. 
It is just a matter of time Sharona
Is it just destiny, destiny? 
Or is it just a game in my mind, Sharona?
Never gonna stop, give it up. 
Such a dirty mind. Always get it up for the touch
of the younger kind. My my my i yi woo. M M M My Sharona...
