As I Recall
In my pursuit to find a mate.
I asked this sweet girl on a date.
She turned and smiled and politely said.
Did you expect me to say drop dead?
So I replied, you never know.
So whatta ya say, you wanna go?
She acquiesced, you seem alright.
I am free on Friday night.
I asked what do you like to do?
She said, I don't know, how 'bout you?
So I said how about dinner and a movie.
I suppose you can guess, she said groovy.
So I took her to the golden arches.
All that grease and all them starches.
Instead of a movie, we went bowling.
That's when the date really got rolling.
She had fun and so did I.
But we didn't date again, I don't know why.
