Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, she came lookin' for me with her arms open wide
Like some long-lost friend of mine
She said, "Excuse me, but do you remember me?"
I said, "No, I don't believe I do"
So she looked me up and down and undressed me with her eyes
Then she said, "You've got everything I need
You got everything I want"
So I said, "Okay"
[Verse 2]
You can wear my hat, you can have my coat
You can take my shirt 'cause I don't need it
You wear my shoes, you can take my socks
Come on, take my bag, it's yours
If you love it you can have it
If you love it, ain't no problem
If you love it, come on, take it
If you love it
[Verse 3]
So a friend came up to me with a pen and paper in her hand
Expressing some interest in the number of my room
She said, "Excuse me, but do you remember me?"
I said, "No," she said, "Can I appeal to you?"
So I looked her up and down and realizing her insinuations
I blushed
She said, "Listen, babe, you don't know me, no, you don't know me
But you owe me and I love you, yes, I love you, put your arms around me
'Cause I love you and I got all your records and I love you"
So I suggested
[Verse 4]
You can wear my hat, you can have my coat
You can take my shirt 'cause I don't need it
You can wear my shoes, you can take my socks
Come on, take my bag, it's yours
If you love it, well, you can have it
If you love it I got no problem
If you love it, come on, take it
If you love it, love it, come on, love it
[Verse 5]
Well, later that day this guy came to me
With a scrap of paper in his hand
He said, "Hey, buddy, can you sign your name for me?"
I said, "Why, do I owe you money?"
He said, "No," I said, "Listen, pal, do I know you? Have we ever met?
Why do you want my name on this little piece of paper?"
He said, "I love you, I don't know you but I love you
Like my brother I love you, put your arms around me 'cause I love you"
I said, "Hey, let's not rush things"
[Verse 6]
You can wear my hat, you can have my coat
You can take my shirt 'cause I don't need it
You can wear my shoes, you can take my socks
Come on, take my bag, it's yours
If you love it you can have it
If you love it, ain't no problem
If you love it, come on, take it
If you love it, love it, come on, love it
[Verse 7]
Ain't not problem for me if you want it
Take my hat, take my bag
I don't need nothing
[Verse 8]
You can wear my hat, you can wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat
Wear my hat
You can wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat
You can wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat
You can take anything you want
Take my bag, it's yours
You can wear my hat
You can wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat
You can wear my hat
Wear my hat
Wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat
Come on, wear my hat
