[Chorus 1]
As I was walking down rubadub square
Not a chill to the weather but a nip to the air
From another direction she was caught in my eye
It could be an illusion, but I might as well try
Might as well try
[Chorus 2]
She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
And I knew without asking she was into the blues
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
I knew right away, she was not like other girls
(Like other girls)
[Bridge]
Well, I ain't never been right, as I ain't never been wrong
It seldom works out the way it does in this song
(Hey)
'Cause once in a while you get shown in the light
In the strangest of places if you look at it right
[Rap Verse]
It was the summer of love, and I thank the stars above
Because the woman took the lovin' over me
And just to gain her trust, I bought a microbus
Because I sold up all my personal property
A tight tie-dyed dress, she was a psychedelic mess
We toured to the north, south, east and west
We sold some mushroom tea
We sold some ecstasy
We sold nitrous, opium, acid, heroin and PCP
And now I hear the police coming after me
Yes, now I hear the police coming after me
The one Scarlet, with the flowers in her hair
She's got the police coming after me
As I was walking down rubadub square
Not a chill to the weather but a nip to the air
From another direction she was caught in my eye
It could be an illusion, but I might as well try
Might as well try
[Chorus 2]
She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
And I knew without asking she was into the blues
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
I knew right away, she was not like other girls
(Like other girls)
[Bridge]
Well, I ain't never been right, as I ain't never been wrong
It seldom works out the way it does in this song
(Hey)
'Cause once in a while you get shown in the light
In the strangest of places if you look at it right
[Rap Verse]
It was the summer of love, and I thank the stars above
Because the woman took the lovin' over me
And just to gain her trust, I bought a microbus
Because I sold up all my personal property
A tight tie-dyed dress, she was a psychedelic mess
We toured to the north, south, east and west
We sold some mushroom tea
We sold some ecstasy
We sold nitrous, opium, acid, heroin and PCP
And now I hear the police coming after me
Yes, now I hear the police coming after me
The one Scarlet, with the flowers in her hair
She's got the police coming after me
