Ray Charles - It Should Have Been Me Lyrics
As I passed byA real fine hotelA chick walked outShe sure looked swellI gave her the eyeAnd started to carry onWhen a Cadillac cruised upAnd 'swish' she was gone.It should've been meWith that real fine chickIt should've been meWith that real fine chickHey hey hey, hey, driving that, Cadillac.A little later onA theater I passedI spotted another chickAnd did she have classI was all setTo write her name in my bookWhen her husband came up and gave me aReal dirty look.It should've been meWith that real fine chickIt should've been meWith that real fine chickIt should've been meTo have been her chaperone.When I got to the cornerI saw a sharp catWith a 300 dollar suit onAnd a 100 dollar hatHe was standing on the sidewalkBy a DynaFlowWhen a voice within said,"C'mon daddy, let's go."It should've been meWith that real fine chickIt should've been meWith that real fine chickIt should've been meHey hey hey, hey, driving that, DynaFlow.I ate a bowl of chiliAnd I felt OKAt least until I passedThis fine CafeI saw a guy eatin'A great big steakWhile a waitress stood by feedin' himIce cream and cake.It should've been meWith that real fine chickIt should've been meWith that real fine chickYou know, it should've been meEatin' ice, cream and cake.It should've been meGettin' my natural kicksIt should've been meGettin' my natural kicksHey hey hey, hey, lovin' those, crazy chicks...
