Lovely Rita

lovely rita meter maid..

lovely rita meter maid.

lovely rita meter maid.

nothing can come between us

when it gets dark I'll tow your heart away



Standing by a parking meter

when I caught a glimse of rita

filling in a ticket in her little white book



in a cap she looked much older

and the bag across her shoulder

made her look a little like a military man



lovely rita meter maid

may I inquire discreetly

when are you free

to take some tea with me?



took her out and tried to win her

had a laugh and over dinner

told her I would really like to see her again

got the bill and rita paid it

took her home I nearly made it



sitting on the sofa with a sister or two

oh lovely rita meter maid

where would I be without you

give us a wink and make me think of you
