LYRICS

Aw, U driving me crazy up here
Making me feel so good, so good, so good
Huh, question: how many of y'all never seen me before?
Aw, first timers, huh?
I'ma see if U know the words 2 this song
If U don't, U better ask somebody
Come on, y'all

I was workin' part-time in a 5-and-dime
My boss was Mr. McGee, huh
He told me several... (times)
(That he didn't like my kind cuz I was a bit 2 leisurely)
(It seems that I was busy doin' somethin' close 2 nothin')
(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
Kind U'd find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
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 2 ask me
If I planned 2 do her any harm
So looka here now, I put her on the back of my bike
Where we go? (Down by) ...Old Man Johnson's farm
So looka here now, overcast days never turned me on
But somethin' 'bout the clouds and her mixed
She-e-e-e wasn't 2 bright, but I could tell when she kissed me
She knew how 2 get her kicks
Sing it!

Raspberry beret (Raspberry beret)
Kind U'd find in a second hand store (Kind U find, oh no no!)
Raspberry beret (Uh huh, uh huh)
If it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I, (love her) ...I think I love U now

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
They say the first time ain't the greatest
But I'll tell ya, if I had the chance 2 do it all again, oh
(I wouldn't change a stroke) What? (Cuz baby, I'm the most)
What? (With a girl as fine as she was then)
Whoo, oh...

Raspberry beret (Raspberry beret) Ow!
Kind U'd find in a second hand store (Kind U find, oh no no!)
Raspberry beret (Uh huh, uh)
If it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more
(Tell me where have all the raspberry women gone?)
Raspberry beret (Portland!)
I think I, I think I love ya!
Whoo!
