Nadine — текст песни (Stan Ridgway)

As I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat

I thought I saw my future bride walking up the street

I shouted to the driver, "hey, conductor, you must

Slow down, I think I see her, please, let me off the bus"



Nadine

Oh, honey, is that you

Woah, nadine

Oh, honey, is that you

Seems every time I see you, baby, youve got somethin else to do





Woah, I saw from the corner when she turned and doubled back

And started walkin toward a coffee-colored cadillac

Pushin through the crowd, tryin to get to where shes at

I was campaign-shouting like a southern diplomat





Chorus repeat





Youre off with someone, someone new!





Downtown, searchin for her, lookin all around

Saw her getting in a yellow cab heading uptown

I caught a loaded taxi, picked up everybodys tab

Tipped a twenty dollar bill, I said "you catch that yellow cab"





Chorus repeat last line repeat x4

Nadine

Make a scene

Nadine

Keep it clean

Nadine

Eat a bean, nadine
