Song lyrics

[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, ooh, I saw her,
She walked in through the out door, out door,
She wore a...

[Chorus:]
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 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...

[Chorus:]
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,
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.
