Raspberry Beret (Extended 12" Version)

One, two, one, two, three

Yeah

I was workin' 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

It seems that I was busy doin' somethin' close to nothin'

But different than the day before

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

She walked in through the outdoor, outdoor

She wore a 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

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 ridin'

Down by old man Johnson's farm

I said now, overcast days never turned me on

But somethin' 'bout the clouds and her mixed

She wasn't too bright

But I could tell when she kissed me she knew how to get her kicks

She wore a 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

Rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof

And the horses wonder who you are

Thunder drowns out but the lightnin' sees

You feel like a movie star

Listen

They say the first time ain't the greatest

But I tell ya

If I had the chance I'd 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

(Raspberry beret)

(The kind you find in a second hand store)

The kind you find, the kind you find

Oh, no, no

(Raspberry beret)

(If it was warm she wouldn't wear much more)

Where have all the raspberry women gone?

(Raspberry beret)

I think I, think I, think I, I think I love her

(Raspberry beret)
