It Should Have Been Me |
| As I passed by |
| A real fine hotel |
| A chick walked out |
| She sure looked swell |
| I gave her the eye |
| And started to carry on |
| When a Cadillac cruised up |
| And 'swish' she was gone |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| Hey hey hey, hey, driving that, Cadillac |
| A little later on |
| A theater I passed |
| I spotted another chick |
| And did she have class |
| I was all set |
| To write her name in my book |
| When her husband came up and gave me a |
| Real dirty look |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| It should’ve been me |
| To have been her chaperone |
| When I got to the corner |
| I saw a sharp cat |
| With a 300 dollar suit on |
| And a 100 dollar hat |
| He was standing on the sidewalk |
| By a DynaFlow |
| When a voice within said |
| «C'mon daddy, let’s go.» |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| It should’ve been me |
| Hey hey hey, hey, driving that, DynaFlow |
| I ate a bowl of chili |
| And I felt OK |
| At least until I passed |
| This fine Cafe |
| I saw a guy eatin' |
| A great big steak |
| While a waitress stood by feedin' him |
| Ice cream and cake |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| It should’ve been me |
| With that real fine chick |
| You know, it should’ve been me |
| Eatin' ice, cream and cake |
| It should’ve been me |
| Gettin' my natural kicks |
| It should’ve been me |
| Gettin' my natural kicks |
| Hey hey hey, hey, lovin' those, crazy chicks… |
