Listen boy, I just don't get it I met her once and I can't forget it Let her down and you'll regret it Though it's true, yes it's true I can't tell you what to do But if I were you I'd take her Take her and I'd make her You gotta take that girl And make that girl your own As the midnight hour advances You still let her take her chances Don't ignore her anxious glances Can't you see, can't you see What a fine thing she could be Just go to her and hold her Love her, cheese her, scold her You gotta take that girl And make that girl your own She won't hide her head in sorrow When the daylight comes tomorrow She'll have dreams that you can borrow So don't you be a fool like me Don't pretend you just can't see Just go to her and get her I don't think that you'll regret her You gotta take that girl And make that girl your own
