I met her down the corner store,
she was the prettiest girl I'd ever seen before
Her Father was as straight as sin,
he'd be cleaning his gun before he let me in
My Mother heard me cry at night,
'cause this girl I loved, she was out my sight
My Father said just hope and pray,
some day soon she will hear you say
Hey baby would you walk my way
I've been dreaming about you since yesterday
and would you let me take ya' home,
I've got your favourite tea for ya' on the stove
and could ya', could ya' flash a dial,
I've been in search of you for a long, long while
Hey baby would you walk my way
I've been dreaming about you since yesterday
It must've been the first of May,
the party on Seabrook holiday
She wore Chanel and Tiffany gold
while I was dressed in my brothers clothes
At summers end she left the town
and my heart it broke with that engine sound
My Father said just hope and pray,
one day soon she will hear you say
Hey baby would you walk my way
I've been dreaming about you since yesterday
and would you let me take ya' home,
I've got your favourite tea for ya' on the stove
and could ya', could ya' flash a dial,
I've been in search of you for a long, long while
Hey baby would you walk my way
I've been dreaming about you since yesterday
Time passed, my feelings stayed
and I found myself at that old cafe
She moved to the upper side,
so I milled up logs just to earn a ride
One night in the orange glow
through the doorway light was a girl I know
Before me stood Ally Ray
and you wouldn't believe it but I heard her say
Hey baby would you walk my way
I've been dreaming about you since yesterday
and would you let me take ya' home, I
've got your favourite tea for ya' on the stove
and could ya', could ya' flash a dial,
I've been in search of you for a long, long while
Hey baby would you walk my way
I've been dreaming about you since yesterday
