Rasperry Beret Songtext
von Prince

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 too leisurely
Seems that I was busy doing something close to 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
She wore a...

Raspberry beret
The kind you 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
She had the nerve to ask me
If I planned to 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 too bright
But I could tell when she kissed me
She knew how to get her kicks
She wore a...

Raspberry beret
The kind you 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
And the horses wonder who you are
Thunder drowns out what the lightning sees
You feel like a movie star
Listen, they say the first time ain′t the greatest
But I tell you, if I had the 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
