Lyrics
Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you do
And in my head I make a picture
'Cause since I've come on home (Ooh)
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair (Ooh)
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over (Ooh)
And stop makin' a fool out of me?
And why don't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie
Did you have to go to jail?
Put your house on up for sale?
Did you get a good lawyer?
I hope you didn't catch a tan
I hoped you'd find the right man
Who'd fix it for ya
Are you shoppin' anywhere? (Ooh-ooh)
Changed the color of you hair (Ooh-ohh)
Are you busy? (Ooh-ooh)
And did you have to pay the fine (Ooh-ooh)
You were dodging all the time? (Ooh-ooh)
Are you still dizzy? (Ooh-ooh)
Yeah, 'cause since I've come on home (Ooh)
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair (Ooh)
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over? (Ooh)
And stop makin' a fool out of me
Oh, why won't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie
Valerie
Valerie
Well, sometimes I go out by myself (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I look across the water (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I think of all the things, what you're doin' (Ooh-ooh)
And in my head I make a picture (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
'Cause since I've come on home (Ooh)
Well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair (Ooh)
And the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over (Ooh)
And stop makin' a fool out of me?
Why won't you come on over Valerie?
Valerie
Valerie
Valerie
Yeah, Valerie
