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 (out door).
[Chorus]:
She wore a Raspberry beret
The kind U find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
Built like she was, uh, she had the nerve 2 ask me
If I planned 2 do her any harm
So, look here, I put her on the back of my bike and-a we went riding
Down by old man Johnson's farm
I said now, overcast days never turned me on
But something about the clouds and her mixed
She wasn't 2 bright but I could tell
When she kissed me
She knew how 2 get her kicks
[Chorus]:
She wore a Raspberry beret
The kind U find in a second hand store
Raspberry beret
And if it was warm she wouldn't wear much more
Raspberry beret
I think I love her
The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof,
NC
And the horses wonder who U are.
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
NC
U feel like a movie star
Listen, they say the first time ain't the greatest
NC
But I tell ya, if I had the chance 2 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.
chorus repeated to fade

You don't know how you move me, deconstruct me, and consume me, I'm all
used up, I'm out of luck, I am starstruck, By something in your eyes.
That is keeping my hope alive. - Matthew Sweet
