Hey, hey, pretty girl
Why don't you come and take a chance on me?
Give me a chance to lift you up so high
A chance to make you happy
So pretty baby, won't you look my way?
Why don't you let me come and take your hand?
I'd like to take you on the town tonight
Instead of playing out with the band
Every time that I see your face
I don't know what I do
I get so scared around you
What else am I to do?
So I say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Now baby, don't you go
Hey, hey, pretty girl
I wrote this song just for you
To show you that I am sincere
And all the silly things that I do
So pretty baby, won't you look my way?
Why don't you let me come and take your hand?
I'd like to take you on the town tonight
Instead of playing out with the band
Every time that I see your face
I don't know what I do
I get so scared around you
What else am I to do?
So I say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Now baby, don't you go
I know that you want my two arms to hold
Sitting on my stoop one hot summer day
A girl came up to me and she began to say
"Hey, listen, Rudy, just go keep your distance
I don't wanna have to show you what's your resistance"
She kept on walking down the street that day
The only thing that came to mind
The only thing I thought to say
Was "Pretty baby, oh, pretty baby
Pretty baby, why don't you come my way?"
Yeah, yeah
Said "Pretty baby, why don't you come my way?"
