[Verse 1]
A# D#
She was fifteen, quiet and lean
A# D#
Digging the music, making the scene

People would stare at her long golden hair

My baby's in black was the colour she'd wear
[Chorus]

When I first saw her, my heart did flips
Cm F
Feel our first kiss still burning my lips
D# A# D#
Holding her near, year after year, my Southside girl
[Verse 2]
D#
She was so fine that after a time

I found myself hoping she would be mine

She spotted my plan, did not understand
A#
She thought I was crazy holding her hand
[Chorus]

I called upon her mother, she told me "There's another"
A#
"Why don't you just quit and go home?"

I said "I'll never go home alone"
