Lyrics

[Intro]
1, 2, 1, 2, 3, huh!
Yeah
[Verse 1]
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 too leisurely
Seems that I was busy doing something close to nothing
But different than the day before
That's when I saw her, uh, I saw her
She walked in through the out door, out door
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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 riding
Down by old man Johnson's farm
I said now, overcast days never turned me on
But something '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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof
And the horses wonder who you are
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
Honey, you feel like a movie star
Listen, they say the first time ain't the greatest
But I tell you, if I had the 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
Yeah!
[Chorus]
Ras- (Raspberry beret)
(The kind you find in a second hand store) The kind you find, the kind you find, oh no, no
(Raspberry beret) Uh-huh, uh, uh, uh-huh
(And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more) Where'd all my raspberry women go?
(Raspberry beret) Yeah, oh
I think I, I think I, I think I love her, oh no (Raspberry beret)
No, no, no, no, no, no (The kind you find in a second hand store)
I, I, I, I, I, I (Raspberry beret)
Tell me where all my raspberry women go? (And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more)
Raspberry beret
