Raspberry Beret (Live from One Nite Alone Tour 2002)
Oh you're driving me crazy up here
Makin' me feel so good, so good, so good
Uh, question, how many of y'all never seen me before?
Oooh, first-timers, huh?
Imma see if you know the words to this song
If you don't, you better ask somebody
C'mon y'all
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, ooh, I saw her
She walked in through the outdoor, outdoor
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
Built like she was
She had the nerve to ask me
If I planned to do her any harm
So, look here now
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 about 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
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 ya now
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
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
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
