Miami Lyrics - John Mellencamp

Written by John Mellencamp 

Well I hear in Miami they have a lot of girls 

Who toast their flesh in the sun 

Living on allowances they receive from the old man at home 

To keep up appearances to have fun 

CHORUS: 

Hey baby 

Living in Miami 

I know you're hip to those hotel alibis 

I know you're nowhere near twenty 

But I ain't the kind to kiss and tell or tell lies

Listen To Taylor Swift's New Song 'Call It What You Want' 

Well they are easy to look at, they are hard to hold 

They have high opinions of themselves 

But at night you can find them drinking in the bar 

Wishing that they could find somebody else 

CHORUS 

Well they pull and tug on their high fashion clothes 

As they strip off their armor in their apartment bedrooms 

They wish that somewhere they can find a spark 

Well their sights and visions and dreams are set high 

They think the world can be won with a smile 

I hear 'em giggle out loud, lost in the crowd 

Give me a cuddle when we get outside 

CHORUS
