you've got me

You've got me drivin up and down
Looking for a parking spot
Checkin out the view of that side of town
from the back of that vacant lot
You've got me thinking about how a moon roof leaks
When the summer rains start to pour
You've got me trying to see if I can come back for more.

I'm a far cry from thinking
About what needs to be done
And I just might start drinking
some Dr. Pepper just for fun.
Don't know what I'm doing
with these thoughts you put in my head.
I know it was nothin you'd done,
but it sure was something you said.
Last week I saw you in the diner
Sittin there on the stool
And you certainly couldn't look finer
and I couldn't be more of a fool.
To think that when you said "see ya later"
you were being subtle and sly.
You were probably just being a lady,
and I know I'm just being a guy....when I say
I'm a far cry from thinking
About what needs to be done
And I just might start drinking
some Dr. Pepper just for fun.
Don't know what I'm doing
with these thoughts you put in my head.
I know it was nothin you'd done,
but it sure was something you said.
Maybe I'll get up the courage
to find out what you really meant
Or maybe I'll get on my knees and start beggin
Just to find out how far I can get
There's not much I wouldn't do now
Now that you've got me thinking about you
And I am fixing to find out
if what I think you meant is really true
I'm a far cry from thinking
About what needs to be done
And I just might start drinking
before noon just for fun.
Don't know what I'm doing
with these thoughts you put in my head.
I know it was nothin you'd done,
but it sure was something you said.
