Lyrics

Lovely Rita, meter maid Lovely Rita, meter maid Lovely Rita, meter maid Nothing can come between us When it get dark I tow your heart away Standing by a parking meter When I caught a glimpse of Rita Filling in a ticket in her little white book In a cap she looked much older And the bag across her shoulder Made her look a little like a military man Lovely Rita, meter maid May I ask discreetly? When are you free to have a drink with me? Lovely Rita, meter maid Lovely Rita, meter maid Lovely Rita, meter maid Nothing can come between us When it get dark I tow your heart away Took her out and tried to win her Had a laugh and over dinner Told her I would really like to see her again Got the bill and Rita paid it Took her home and nearly made it Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two Oh, lovely Rita, meter maid Where will I be without you? Give me a wink and make me think of you (Lovely Rita, meter maid) Didn't have me Rita (Lovely Rita, meter maid) I love nobody but you, Rita (Lovely Rita, meter maid) Ooh, yeah (Lovely Rita, meter maid) I say here we go (Lovely Rita, meter maid) Please, please, Rita? (Lovely Rita, meter maid) I need nobody but you, Rita (Lovely Rita, meter maid)
