Uke Chek Girl

The first wednesday morning i saw her there

Smiling at me with her blue eyes and curly hair

I couldn't wait 'til next week to make the stop

To see her at the quick chek paper drop

Every wednesday we'd count the papers

We'd have a laugh at the people in their suits

No one seemed to notice how she was different

But i did and i knew

Another wednesday came and it seemed it was right

So i wrote her a note that i hoped she would like

"dear kiah, would you like to go with me

To the boardwalk, what fun it'll be!

We'll eat cotton candy and we'll get french fries with vinegar

We'll get a plate of funnel cake

Then we'll go up on the zipper

Look out on the ocean and puke it all up

All the people will scream

We can have a laugh, what do you say?"

That's what it said in the note

Another week went by and she never called

Another week came and she wished she had

She just broke up with her fiancee, and

Things were kinda crazy with her

I said i understood

Another week went by and she never called

But i thought about the way she looked at me

And i said to myself ... maybe?

I pulled in to the quick chek at 6 a.m

To see the sun coming up

When i walked in, kiah wasn't there

The manager said "she quit, she isn't here

Do you want me to help you count the papers?"
