Boz Scaggs - Mixed Up, Shook Up Girl Lyrics






Candle lit, and my eyes are slits
Jumpin' now, paper clip
Make a move, sail a ship
Tap it in, tap it in, ruby lips

She's a mixed up, shook up girl
Got me so strung out
I don't know what to do
She's a mixed up, mixed up, shook up girl

Take a breath, in the night
Hurry over, she said
But there was no one in sight
Now break away, is in her eyes
You know that little girl, she cut me deep
Inside out

She's a mixed up, shook up girl
Got me so strung out
I don't know what to do
She's a mixed up, mixed up, shook up girl

Hey, you, I remember
All the empty streets
Fill me now
And though you're gone away
I know not forever
Why don't you just come over here and tell me, baby
Is it over now?

She's a mixed up,shook up girl
Got me so strung out
I don't know what to do
She's a mixed up, mixed up, shook up girl
She's a mixed up, shook up girl
She's a mixed up, shook up girl
And she got me so strung out...
She's a mixed up, shook up girl...

And she got me so strung out...

She's a mixed up, shook up girl...

Boz Scaggs Mixed Up, Shook Up Girl Comments
  1. g.... ....

    Too fast

  2. k.... w....

    Stolen title.

  3. M.... T....

    love this song so much! I knew a girl like this once upon a time!

  4. s.... s....

    Reminds me of being in a shady part of san francisco. The heavy fog and vague distant sounds and smells from a small dirty chinese restaurant...(kinda wish I was there now for brief moment) ah, the memories music brings

  5. K.... B....

    I would not have known who Box Scaggs is if it wasn't for Fosters PBS special. Of course I heard his good music. But never thought about it.
    What made me aware of Him was a very nice man walking up to line in NYC shop asking if there was a place for a "guy like him to sit down in a place like this.. Then either that night or the following I saw a man that looked just like him on David Fosters PBS special.
    Stuff like this has been happening a lot.
    Anyway.. I certainly can dig listening to Box's music.. Especially 'Low Down' (always loved the song.. And the Sound). This time knowing more about the artist. Whether he was the guy in the store who needed to sit down or not ...
    I see he will be appearing in NYC on Nov 14... The day before my birthday.
    I'd highly consider going to see Him. '

  6. N.... M....

    Sounds like Van Morrison. Nice music

  7. J.... S....

    Best thing to come from The Steve Miller Band was.... BOZ SCAGGS!!!!!!

    J.... S....

    Thanks Jerry-I didnt know Boz was in that band

  8. m.... C....

    this is a nice track.

  9. W.... D....

    Wonderful version of one of my favorite songs.

  10. P.... o....

    Hmm, this is a really nice track but the rest of the album is pretty pedestrian, if listenable in a rather soporific way. A couple of bog-standard blues, a carbon copy of a Willie Mitchell era Al Green track, and a couple of less than memorable ballads. I've loved much of his work ever since the Steve Miller days but his recent success rate has declined. "Dig" was by far the best thing he's done in the last 20 years. Unquestionably one of the great rock male vocalists and he manages to steal the show with The Dukes of September.

  11. j.... o....

    Hot rhythm & velvet melody ...Properly percussed.

  12. J.... S....

    makes me want to dance!! My fave of the "Memphis" album. LOVE IT!! Boz at his best....

    J.... S....

    Reply written by Ana Furlong and not Mr Jerry Sullivan. Yes right u r. Steve Miller I don't believe know just what talent the BOZ had till BOZ went solo...

  13. B.... N....

    Like this song. One of my all time Willy DeVille favourites.

  14. S.... S....

    Got a bit of that  "mixed up..shook up" girl in me!

    S.... S....

    Trying, Jerry!

    S.... S....

    Hold on to it... :-)

    S.... S....

    Liking that mixed hardwood forest... looks like Ohio...

    S.... S....

    And it could be except for the mountains here.  This northern part of NH and VT reminds me of rural IA, without the peaks.

    S.... S....

    Nice country! My fave musician, Tom Rush, started up there in the Merrimack County. Still see him on occasion.. stay warm Steffaney..have a nice Christmas.

  15. M.... M....

    Boz, you're awesome.

  16. F.... F....

    still kicking ass after all these years

  17. G.... ....

    The BOZ rules.  Been listening to him for over 30 years beginning with the OASIS-FM in Dallas. 

  18. L.... B....

    Fabulous concert Memphis Tour in Australia! Big thumbs-up to the playlist which included this track and some old stuff, which had everyone on their feet and the floor bouncing!!

  19. b.... ....

    poor swami
    can't hear the forest for the trees

  20. b.... ....

    This is really good. I agree.

  21. b.... ....

    Love Boz. True Blues artist.

  22. l.... ....

    He prefers Willy but he was impressed by this version.

  23. B.... ....

    MEMPHIS is a diamond among his crown of album gems!

  24. R.... S....

    Man it has been a long time since I listened to Boz Scaggs. Now I gotta ask myself why? Awesome.

  25. s.... ....

    saw him in torrington ,ct worst concert I ever saw, only played a few famous songs played for himself , screw his fans . if you want to hear his old music you won't hear it at his concerts. retire you old fart , new music is garbage.

    s.... ....

    wow surprised

    s.... ....

    Public not smart enough to grow with the artist..GET IT !

  26. M.... G....

    Freddie the Frenchman Cuellar would approve.

  27. J.... D....

    Just want to get up and dance!

  28. D.... H....

    Almost as good is quite a compliment. Great song. Boz did it with his style and it shows.

  29. e.... ....

    This whole album is perfect. Fits the groove perfectly and aptly named Memphis.
    You go, Boz...no one is cooler than you.

  30. J.... S....

    sure... Willie Deville

  31. m.... g....

    Saw Boz last night at the Orpheum in Memphis. All I can say is OMG. At this age, he sounds better than he ever did and his live versions of his old classics and his new music from his Memphis album sounds better than his recordings! And, what a band! Go see him -- one of the best concerts ever.

  32. d.... ....

    Can't get enough of Boz! He is truly a treasure in the music world...Been listening to him since the early 70's...Vocally, he actually sounds as good as ever!! Definitely will see one of is concerts somewhere this summer...He played the Syracuse Jazz Fest a few years ago and hit it out of the PARK!!!! Go Boz!!!!! You go, my brother!!!

  33. E.... B....

    wonder, wonder ...... wonderful, Mr. Scaggs!

  34. b.... ....

    Take her hand, lead her to the floor...step in, step out..."bop" is right!

  35. R.... ....

    Nice Version, but Mink de Ville Rules!!!

    R.... ....

    Especially in the video where hes sweating and looks real wasted. Does a great job on song. Damn, heroin

  36. S.... ....

    Thanks for this tribute to my hero (and I guess one of yours) Willy DeVille.

  37. c.... ....

    Hard not to bop to this...go on...nod your head and put this on repeat. Wah Hey!

  38. R.... E....

    Great NEW album, nice drop BOZ!!!!.......da REV Eddro

  39. k.... b....

    The song reminds me of my young days.

  40. T.... P....

    Been following whole career , can't wait for album !

  41. M.... M....

    Thanks for covering Billy's (Willy's) song. An honor both ways. -- Mandy Mercier

    M.... M....

    Wow Mandy sounds like you knew the Great Willy DeVille.

  42. r.... j....

    Boz is back.

  43. r.... ....

    Remembering seeing Boz 43 years ago in a TV & radio special with 2 receivers tuned to two different radio stations allowing for true 4 channel content. I was very impressed with his material and his coolness. Heard this song today from a local college station. He sounds as good as ever. It's not so bad growing old when you see your heroes aging with you...*S*

  44. b.... j....

    Sign me up!!!

  45. O.... R....

    Good Song! I Like This Song !

  46. S.... ....

    Love it!

  47. s.... ....

    So happy Boz ~~~ I listened to the short takes off the CD, it's fantastic...I'm busting until I have it in my hands.....love you long time...see you in Atlantic City this summer, hopefully

  48. s.... ....
