It started way back on a Saturday night
Under the boardwalkís neon glow
Fishing ledge by the waterís edge
Now I remember how the story goes
You were small and lean. You were just sixteen
And the only thing I could see
You always had your arms around another guy
While you were lookiní straight at me
Red head girl ... how can you be so blind
Red head girl ... I've always wanted to make you mine
Red head girl ... just tell me what to do
Red head girl ... so that I can get to you
Followed you out to the parking lot
Where you became my shooting star
Can't describe what a chill I got
Like a part time permanent scar
But a thought confounds my sensibilities until this day
If you really truly felt those things
Well, darliní, couldn't you just have stayed
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... can't get you off my mind
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... see, you do this every time
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... if only you could see
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... I want you to be with me
Wait a minute now wanna get some words in about her thick skin
and the way she always knocked me down
She look so good make you wanna jump in and get to bumpin'
try to get the feel what she's about, but the baby's no lady
put it on a stick and drive me crazy, cuz the bump bump
doesn't go bump bump when you want, and my oh my my,
the oo la la la, she's just gonna hide it behind it, no,
I'm never gonna figure this one out
Who would've known that we would cross again
On a night out with your man
Seven years and a couple of drinks
And now here you go again
See you looked so good when you said "take care"
You put your hand upon my knee
But why you wanna whisper sweet in my ear
And then walk away from me?
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... do I you have to be so cruel
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... you wanna make me act the fool
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... tell me what've I got to be
Red head girl (oo la la la) ... to make you wanna get with me
