The Creature From The Black Lagoon Lyrics - Repeat When Necessary - Dave Edmunds

All he wanted was a lady 

When at night he came up from the deep 

He was feeling like any other lonely fella 

Decided to take one while the city was asleep 

The unsuspecting maiden 

Was clutched from where she lay 

And taken away to a home down under 

The waters of the local bay 

By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a 

Strange to see him back so soon 

After his last intended did the dirty on him 

Didn't last five minutes in the swim 

With the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a 

Be seeing him again real soon 

After this intended lets him down 

Won't last five minutes with him around 

Only surfaced for a companion 

'Cause of that he's never been seen 

Just a big look written in the eyes of his baby 

And a cry of terror, a honeymoon scream 

The unsuspecting maiden 

Will be clutched from where she sleeps 

And taken away to a home down under 

The water and that's for keeps 

By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a 

Strange to see him back so soon 

After his last intended did the dirty on him 

Didn't last five minutes in the swim 

The unsuspecting maiden 

Will be clutched from where she sleeps 

And taken away to a home down under 

The water and that's for keeps 

By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a 

Strange to see him back so soon 

After his last intended did the dirty on him 

Didn't last five minutes in the swim 

With the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a 

Be seeing him again real soon 

After this intended lets him down 

Won't last five minutes with him around 

By the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a 

Strange to see him back so soon 

After his last intended did the dirty on him 

Didn't last five minutes in the swim 

With the Creature from the Black Lagoon-a 

Be seeing him again real soon 

After this intended lets him down
