That day I first saw you Whoa-whoa, passing by I wanted to know your name But I-I was much too shy
But I was looking (lookin') at you so hard Until you must have had a hunch (You must have had a hunch) So, you came up to me And asked me my name
You beat me to the punch (You beat me to the punch) that time You beat me to the punch (You beat me to the punch) Whoa-oh-oh-oh You beat me to the punch (You beat me to the punch)
Oh-oh-whoa, after I hadn't known you For what seems like a long, long, time I wanted, wanted to ask you Would you please, please be mine?
Whenever you came around (You came) my heart would pound So, you must have had a hunch (You must have had a hunch) So, you came up to me You asked me to be yours
You beat me to the punch (You beat me to the punch) one more time You beat me to the punch (You beat me to the punch) Whoa-oh-oh-oh You beat me to the punch, yeah (You beat me to the punch)
Since I love you I thought you would be true And love me tender So, I let my heart surrender to you-hoo Yes, I did
But I found out beyond a doubt One day boy, you were a playboy Who would go away And leave me, blue-ooo
So, I ain't gonna wait around (go around) For you to put me down (what you oughta do) This time I'm gonna play my hunch (I'll be here, you can blame my stunt) Then walk away this very day
And beat you to the punch (And beat you to the punch) this time (go!) I'll beat you to the punch, yes I will (go!) (I'll beat you to the punch)
FADES-
Let you know, now (I'll beat you to the punch) how little it feels (Why don't you) Ho-ho-ho (I'll beat you to the punch) Ho-ho-ho.
