Here comes a new kid, a new kid in town
Yeah he's new to the neighborhood, ch-ch-check him out
I heard there's a red-headed girl with legs for days
Let me tell you 'bout the red-headed girls, all they do is complain
All day, wanna talk shit all day, complain, hey
I hear he's the talk of the town
(I hear he's the talk of the town)
(I hear he's the talk of the town)
Quit lookin' at him sideways, ladies let's all calm down
(Calm down)
(Will you please calm down)
No don't, don't count me out
(Don't count her out)
(Don't count her out)
Welcome to the neighborhood
He's a new kid in town
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, sally, what's her name? Last summer's fling
I heard she cried all winter for you
'Cause you took back that ring you gave her
That's pretty fucked up, why'd you take it back man?
I know that I'm more your speed
And I think that you might look a little better
Look a little better with me
I don't care what your friends say, hey!
I hear he's the talk of the town
(I hear he's the talk of the town)
(I hear he's the talk of the town)
Quit lookin' at him sideways, ladies let's all calm down
(Calm down)
(Will you please calm down)
No don't, don't count me out
(Don't count her out) (No)
(Don't count her out)
Welcome to the neighborhood
He's a new kid in town
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
