Lyrics
There's a girl I like and I see her every day, but I never can think of anything to say.
She's so pretty but my tongue is tied today, is there nothing I can do to make her look my way.
Lucy, Lucy, babe, I know you're trying to help, the doctor's in but nothing's gonna make me well.
CH
Girl I see you and you stop my words
I'm so tongue-tied I can't make a sound
You are the little red head girl
And I'm Charlie Brown
SO I'll just pet my dog and try to fly my kite, it gets tangled up in trees you know but that's alright.
My peanut butter sandwich is so hard to chew, you know it sticks to the roof of my mouth when I look at you.
Peppermint Patty could tell me what to do, if she wasn't just a fictional character in a cartoon.
CH
Break
Nah nah nah
Nah nah nah
