[Chorus]
Shela, Shela, she like a hurricane
Shela, Shela, she like a ball and chain
Shela, Shela, she like a hurricane

[Verse 1]
Got myself a lady
I get down on my knees
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hotter than Hades
Heaven if you please
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Shela, Shela, she like a hurricane
Shela, Shela, she like a ball and chain
Shela, Shela, she like a hurricane

[Verse 2]
Some girls put it to you
Make you scream in pain
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Some will say they knew you
And then forget your name
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Bridge]
Shela, real tight
Shela, that's right
Shela

[Outro]
She said she could do it
Love she could fulfill, yeah
There ain’t nothing to it
Backbone gets a chill, yeah
