As I got up on a city bus, I found a vacant seat
I thought I saw my future bride walking up the street
I shouted to the driver "Hey, driver, you must slow down
I think I see her, please let me off the bus"

Nadine, all right, honey, is that you? Woo
Whoa, Nadine, oh honey, is that you?
Honey, every time I see you
You've always got something to do

I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back
Started walking towards a coffee coloured Cadillac
I'm pushing through the crowd, trying to get to where she's at
I was campaign shouting like a southern diplomat

Nadine, all right, honеy, is that you? Woo
And, Nadine, are you therе yet? Is that you?
Honey, every time I see you
You've always got something to do, all right

Downtown, searching for her, looking all around
Saw her getting in a cab, going uptown
Caught a loaded taxi, paid up everybody's bill
Except a twenty dollar bill, I had to catch a cab

Nadine, all right, honey, is that you? Oh yeah
Nadine, oh is that you? Are you there?
Honey, every time I see you
You've always got something to do, oh yeah
Moves around like a wayward summer breeze
Go, driver, go catch her, catch her, will you please?
Moving through the traffic like a mounted Cavalier
Driving through the taxi, trying to, trying to make her hear

Nadine, all right, honey, is that you? Woo
Nadine, oh is that you? All right
Honey, every time I see you
You've always got something to do, oh
Well honey, every time I see you
You've always got something to do, one more time
Well honey, every time I see you
You've always got something to do
