Raspberry Beret Lyrics

Raspberry Beret

(Prince)



Yeah



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 2 leisurely



Seems that I was busy doing something close 2 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

Raspberry beret

The kind U 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



Built like she was

She had the nerve 2 ask me

If I planned 2 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 2 bright

But I could tell when she kissed me

She knew how 2 get her kicks



She wore a

Raspberry beret

The kind U 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



The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof

And the horses wonder who U are

Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees

U feel like a movie star



Listen

They say the first time ain't the greatest

But I tell ya

If I had the chance 2 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)

The kind U find (The kind U find)

The kind U find (In a second hand store)

Oh no no

(Raspberry beret)

(And if it was warm)

Where have all the raspberry women gone? (She wouldn't wear much 

more)

Yeah (Raspberry beret)



I think I... I think I... I think I love her



(Raspberry beret)

No No No

No No No (The kind U find)

(In a second hand store)

(Raspberry beret)

Tell me

Where have all the raspberry women gone? (And if it was warm she)

(Wouldn't wear much more)

(Raspberry beret)

I think I love...
