Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The line is long, but I won't complain
I didn't need much anyway
Just stopping by always makes my day
To see her lovely face

[Chorus]
I have a thing for the girl behind the counter
Candy selling candy while talking so sweet
Guess I'll need another treat to pass the hour
Good service, but I wonder if that smile's for me

[Verse 2]
She has that candy-coated charm
A soft hello, a disarming calm
Always there to help and give a hand
She's not the type to ever give a command
She's just sweet and I would never take advantage
But, it's good to know what I want would be granted

[Chorus]
I have a thing for the girl behind the counter
Candy selling candy while talking so sweet
Guess I'll need another treat to pass the hour
Good service, but I wonder if that smile's for me

[Bridge]
She says "welcome back", she knows I've been here before (oooooh)
I swear she came to work the front when I walked through the door
With her gorgeous blue eyes, and her smile that's so bright
I just want her to know she is so right (Woo!)

[Chorus]
I have a thing for the girl behind the counter (ohhh)
Candy selling candy while talking so sweet (you're so sweet)
Guess I'll need another treat to pass the hour
Good service, but I wonder if that smile's for me
Behind the counter
Behind the counter

[Outro]
Now all I can think is... behind the counter
If you know what I mean... behind the counter
I know what I need... behind the counter
She's the sweetest thing... behind the counter
