...She wore a Rasberry Beret.

...She wore a Rasberry Beret.

This is a song that stole your heart in 1985.

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

She wore a Rasberry Beret
The kind you find in a second hand store
Rasberry Beret
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
Rasberry 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 I put her on the back of my bike
And we went riding
Down by old man Johnson's farm
Overcast days never turned me on
But something about the clouds and her mixed
She wasn't too bright but I could tell
When she kissed me
She knew how 2 get her kicks

The rain sounds so cool
When it hits the barn roof
And the horses wonder who you are
Thunder drowns out
What the lightning sees
And makes you feel like a movie star
They say the first time ain't the greatest
But if I had a chance to 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.

I love this song...It's a song that will always be remembered. And what a great video it was.
Thanx Prince... cool

I hate this song now as an adult. Now knowing how chessy it really is. And don't get me started on the video, it makes the cheese smell worse.
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.

I completely ruined this song for one of my girlfriends when I told her that half of the song was about sex. She never realized.
