Raspberry Beret

[Verse 1: Richard Speight, Jr.] Well, I was working part time in a five-and-dime My boss was Mr. McGee He told me several times he didn't like my kind 'Cause I was a bit too leisurely Seems I was busy doing something close to nothing But different than the day before Well, that's when I saw her, ooh, I saw her She walked right through that door [Chorus: Emma Fitzpatrick & Molly Rogers] She wore a Raspberry beret The kind you find in a secondhand store Raspberry beret If it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more Raspberry beret I think I love her [Verse 2: Richard Speight, Jr.] Now built like she was, she had the nerve to ask me If I planned to do her any harm, hah! So I put her on the back of my bike and we went riding To old man Johnson's farm Overcast days never turned me on But something about the clouds and her mixed I ain't too bright but I could tell when she kissed me She knew how to get her kicks [Chorus: Emma Fitzpatrick, Molly Rogers & Richard Speight, Jr.] She wore a Raspberry beret The kind you find in a secondhand store Raspberry beret If it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more Raspberry beret I gotta be honest, I think I love her [Bridge: Richard Speight, Jr.] Now, the rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof And the horses wonder who you are Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees And you feel like a movie star Now listen, they say the first time ain't the greatest But I tell you, if I had the chance to do it all again Hmm, who brought in the biscuits! I wouldn't change a stroke 'cause baby, I'm the most With a girl as fine as she was then Are you kidding me? [Instrumental Break] [Chorus: Emma Fitzpatrick, Molly Rogers & Richard Speight, Jr.] That's right, she wore a Raspberry beret Raspberry beret The kind you find in a secondhand store The kind you find in a little secondhand store Raspberry beret It was definitely a raspberry of color If it was warm she wouldn't wear much more And that's about all that woman was wearing You know what I'm talking about? Raspberry beret Oh, have mercy I think I love her Damn right I love her [Outro: Richard Speight, Jr.] All decked out in those sandals, cut-offs and a halter top Oh wait, maybe it was boots, corduroy slacks and a button-down shirt Hell, I don't remember, I was too focused on that hat Oh, I'm a beret man, I'm not afraid to admit it A beret man from way back
