I was working part time in a five and dime
my boss was Mr. Mc Gee.
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
I saw she walked in through the out door
out door.
She wore a raspberry beret
The kind you find in a second hand store.
Raspberry beret -
and if it was worm 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 her
I put her on the back of my bike and we went riding
Down by old man Johnson's farm.
I said now
obercast days never turned me on
But something about 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. I
She wore a raspberry beret
. . .
The rain sounds so coal when it hits the barn roof
And the horses wonder who you are.
The thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
And you feel like a movie star.
Listen: They say the first time ain't the greatest
I tell you
I have a 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.
Raspberry beret
