The Nat “King” Cole Trio
But She’s My Buddy’s Chick
Met a gal the other night
Jack, she's really slick
And she really knocked me out
But she's my buddy's chick

Started once to move right in
Changed my mind but quick
She could send me, yes, she could
But she's my buddy's chick

She passed by looking cute and fly
Man, she really caught my eye
From her quaint little hat down to her boots
Was the finest of scenic routes

So that's the way the story ends
I nixed out but quick
And I'm sorry to my soul
That she's my buddy's chick

So that's the way the story ends
I nixed out but quick
And I'm sorry to my soul
That she's my buddy's chick

Now I'm a fly guy, not a shy guy
I never missed a trick
But she's my buddy's
My buddy's chick
