As I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat |
|
I thought |
|
I saw my future bride walking up the street |
|
I shouted to the driver, "Hey, conductor, you must Slow down, I think I see her, please, let me off the bus" |
|
Nadine Oh, honey, is that you |
|
Woah, Nadine |
|
Oh, honey, is that you |
|
Seems every time |
|
I see you, baby, you've got somethin' else to do |
|
Woah, I saw from the corner when she turned and doubled back |
|
And started walkin' toward a coffee-colored |
|
Cadillac Pushin' through the crowd, tryin' to get to where she's at |
|
I was campaign-shouting like a |
|
Southern diplomat |
|
Chorus repeat |
|
You're off with someone, someone new! |
|
Downtown, searchin' for her, lookin' all around |
|
Saw her getting in a yellow cab heading uptown |
|
I caught a loaded taxi, picked up everybody's tab |
|
Tipped a twenty dollar bill, |
|
I said "you catch that yellow cab" |
|
Chorus repeat last line repeat x4 |
|
Nadine Nadine |
|
Nadine Make a scene |
|
Nadine Keep it clean |
|
Nadine Eat a bean, |
|
Nadine |
