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 2 leisurely.
Seems that I was busy doing something close 2 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 Raspberry beret
The kind U 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
Built like she was, uh, she had the nerve 2 ask me
If I planned 2 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 and her mixed
She wasn't 2 bright but I could tell
When she kissed me
She knew how 2 get her kicks
:
She wore a Raspberry beret
The kind U 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
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof,
And the horses wonder who U are.
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
U feel like a movie star
Listen, they say the first time ain't the greatest
But I tell ya, if I had the chance 2 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.
