[Verse 1]
Used to think the perfect girl was only in my dreams
Until I saw your perfect face upon the movie screen
You seemed to know that I was there as though from God's design
And as I cried I told myself someday you'd be mine

[Verse 2]
Rae Dawn Chong, baby, won't you hear my song
I have loved you for so long
And I know I can make you love me too

[Verse 3]
Write you letters every day, I send flowers to your home
But it's difficult to prove my love when you won't answer the phone
And looking through binoculars makes it really hard to see you
From the camp that I've set up in your front yard

[Verse 4]
Rae Dawn Chong, why won't you hear my song
What am I doing wrong
'Cause I can't seem to make you love me too

[Bridge]
I'm here inside my prison cell just lying in my bed
I wonder if you loved me when I shot you in the head
[Verse 5]
Rae Dawn Chong, you only had to hear my song
I even bought your dad a bong (Tommy Chong...Cheech and Chong)
And all you had to do was love me
I gave you every chance to love me
You stupid bitch, you should have loved me too
Rae Dawn
