Lyrics
Something Else
Look at that Here she comes Here comes that girl again One of the cutest since I don't know when But she don't notice me when I pass She goes with all the guys from out of my class But that can't stop me from thinking to myself She's sure fine looking, man, she's something else Look at that Across the street There's a car built just for me To own a car would be a luxury But right now I can't afford the gas A brand new convertible is out of my class But that can't stop me from thinking to myself That car's fine looking, man, it's something else Hey, look at that Just wait and see Worked hard and saved my dough I buy that car and then I roll up with Joe Get me that girl and we go riding around We look real sharp with the wide top down I keep on dreaming and thinking to myself When it all comes true, man, that's something else Hey, look at that What's all this? Never thought I'd do this before But here I'm a-knocking on her door My car's out front and it's all mine It's a '41 job not a '59 I got that girl and I'm thinking to myself She's sure fine looking, man, she's something else
