Verse 1

I was lousy at math, a failed historian

Carlene was the valedictorian

 I was the quarterback in the back of class

 She was the whiz kid in horned rim glasses

It's been a long time since I've been around

Since I stepped foot on my old stomping ground

I ended up by the old school yard

 And this red head pulls up in a blue sports car

 And says, "I bet you don't remember, I guess it's been forever."

It took a second to put it all together and I said...

CHOURUS:

Ooh la la la la la

 Looking good Carlene

Woh my my my my my

Times been good to you

 If you know what I mean

Girl you glitter like Hollywood

 Good gosh Carlene

 You sure are lookin good

Verse 2

She said, "Hop in let's go for a spin

 Tell me whatcha been doing boy and where you been"

 I said, "I write songs, you probably didn't know, but I

Finally got a couple out on country radio"

 She said, "What a switch, ain't life funny, I've got a

Ph.D now I'm modeling for money."

Imagine little miss 4 point 0 just

Smiling for the camera on the cover of Vogue

 I said, "You've come a long way since graduation, let me say without

reservation

You've surpassed everyone's expectations"

Pre-Chourus:

 I said, "I hope to see you again someday"

 She said, "Another ten years is too long to wait

Pick me up at my momma's at eight"

I said...
