Shirley was a lady whose teeth were made of gold She danced before the music and everything it told Huckleberry grove Where the music plays into tomorrow night Huckleberry grove Only fools would need to argue or to fight Shirley had eight children and each of them were told You got joy for singing burning in your soul Huckleberry grove Where the idiots can't ease you of your mind Huckleberry grove Take a free train, leave your luggage far behind Oh she sings shangri-la Oh she sings shangri-la Shirley was a lady who mostly stayed at home But she went out dancing down huckleberry grove Huckleberry grove Where the music plays into tomorrow night Huckleberry grove You'll be groovin' on the best days of your life Huckleberry grove Where the music's guaranteed to blow your mind Huckleberry grove Leave your luggage, get a free train, get behind Oh she sings shangri-la Oh she sings shangri-la
