I was working part time in a five and dime



my boss was Mr. Mc Gee.

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



I saw she walked in through the out door

out door.



She wore a raspberry beret



The kind you find in a second hand store.

Raspberry beret -

and if it was worm 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 her

I put her on the back of my bike and we went riding

Down by old man Johnson's farm.

I said now

obercast 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. I

She wore a raspberry beret

. . .



The rain sounds so coal when it hits the barn roof



And the horses wonder who you are.

The thunder drowns out what the lightning sees



And you feel like a movie star.

Listen: They say the first time ain't the greatest



I tell you

I have a 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
