Raspberry Beret (Extended 12" Version)

[Intro]

One, two, one, two, three, uh!

*Coughs*

[Verse 1]

I was working part time in a five-and-dime

My boss was Mr. McGee

He told me several times that he didn't like my kind

'Cause I was a bit too leisurely

Seems that I was busy doing something close to nothing

But different than the day before

That's when I saw her, ooh, I saw her

She walked in through the out door, out door

She wore a...

[Chorus]

Raspberry beret

The kind you find in a second hand store

Raspberry beret

And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more

Raspberry beret

I think I love her

[Verse 2]

Built like she was

She had the nerve to ask me

If I planned to do her any harm

So, look here

I put her on the back of my bike

And-a we went riding

Down by old man Johnson's farm

I said now, overcast days never turned me on

But something about the clouds

In her midst

She wasn't too bright

But I could tell when she kissed me

She knew how to get her kicks

She wore a...

[Chorus]

Raspberry beret

The kind you find in a second hand store

Raspberry beret

And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more

Raspberry beret

I think I love her

[Bridge]

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

You feel like a movie star

Listen, they say the first time ain't the greatest

But I tell you, if I had the chance to do it all again

I wouldn't change a stroke

'Cause baby I'm the most

With a girl as fine as she was then

[Chorus]

Raspberry beret

The kind you find in a second hand store

Raspberry beret

And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more

Raspberry beret

I think I love her

Raspberry beret
