Waiting for the Bus

Verse 1

Saw her by the pharmacy

Waitin' for the city bus

Her hair was curled so perfectly

Wish she'd make a fuss for us

Pre-Chorus

She smiled at a stray dog on the street

Knocked me right off of my feet

Chorus

Oh she's such a sweet young thing

Dressed in calico and blue

Makes my lucky copper ring

Feel like brand new

(Brand new)

Sweet young thing

What am I to do

Verse 2

Stopped to get a cherry soda

I watched her through the glass

Never wanted to know her

More than when I saw her pass

Pre-Chorus

The radio was playin' something soft

My heavy spirit took right off

Chorus

Oh she's such a sweet young thing

Dressed in calico and blue

Makes my lucky copper ring

Feel like brand new

(Brand new)

Sweet young thing

What am I to do

Bridge

Maybe I'll walk up and say hello

Ask her where she likes to go

Maybe she will tell me yes

Beneath that sunny cotton dress

Chorus

Oh she's such a sweet young thing

Dressed in calico and blue

Makes my lucky copper ring

Feel like brand new

(Brand new)

Sweet young thing

What am I to do

(Tell me what to do)

Sweet young thing

What am I to do
