Baby ask your man if he |
|
Would let you come along with me |
|
And watch the morning hit the sea |
|
Or would he like that |
|
If you think he'll take it wrong |
|
Just tell him I won't keep you long |
|
As soon as our good times are gone |
|
I'll bring you right back |
|
But until then could anything be finer |
|
Than rolling toward the ocean in your trusty Morris Minor |
|
Go ask your man |
|
I'm sure he'll understand |
|
While you're on the subject |
|
Would you ask politely if you could |
|
Just bring an open mind to put |
|
Some good times into |
|
Would you ask permission to |
|
Be free just long enough for you |
|
To love me for a day or two |
|
At least begin to |
|
Tell him you'll try not to get your clothes too sandy |
|
Just let him know that I'm from a decent family |
|
Go ask your man |
|
I'm sure he'll understand |
|
Let him know it's not my style |
|
To keep you more than just a while |
|
I'm hung up the way you smile |
|
And love your laughter |
|
Tell him I repect his taste |
|
And I don't want to take his place |
|
A chance to fill the empty space |
|
Is all I'm after |
|
Give him your word that you won't be gone forever |
|
Let's you and I watch the sun come up together |
|
Go ask your man |
|
I'm sure he'll understand |
|
Babe if he should ask of you |
|
Just tell him I won't do to you |
|
A single thing he wouldn't do |
|
Except not own you |
|
Also could you take the time |
|
To ask your man to please define |
|
The words he screams across the line |
|
Each time I phone you |
|
And if he still takes a negative position |
|
Tell him that I'll bring you back in good condition |
|
Go ask your man |
|
I'm sure he'll understand |
