She would mAeet me in the mornE ing

On my wAay down to the riE7 ver

Waiting paA7tient by A7the chant of every tE7ree E

From the pA7athway to the E7 levi

And her liA7ttle blue jeans rE7olled up to her kA nees

Bridge

As she tagged along beside me

Trying hard to copy everything i D did

When i hear somebodyE saying

Lucky under there goes Jody and thA e kid

With another little girl who followA♯ s me
