Lyrics
I Just Met You Babe
Verse 1: Slept in late the other day
Wandered down to the corner café
There she was, never saw her before
My heart was caught as I walked through the door
I sat down, gave the menu a glance
She came over thought I'd take the chance
Then she said, "What it will it be?"
Said, "I was thinkin' bout you and me"
Chorus: I Just Met You Babe
Now you're all I crave
Think my life is saved, and
I Just Met You Babe
Verse 2: She said, "Slow down, be chill,
Mind your manners you might get a thrill,
No need to hurry, I'm here all day."
My tongue got frozen, had nothin' to say
She stepped right up, took over from there,
Said "Have our special and try not to stare"
My brain was reeling, would not compute
Then she added, "At least you're cute"
Verse 3: She brought me coffee with cream on the side
Had to move forward, no time to hide
Decided I would take my best shot
This would be it or it would not
Said,"How come I've never seen you before?"
She said,"Cut the small talk, I'm easily bored"
I said "OK then, how's dinner at eight?" She said
"Here's my number and don't you be late"
