He just turned seventeen
When the moment came
He was standing on the corner
In the pouring rain
She pulled up along side
And rolled the window down
And said "Can I drive you
To some part of town"
He`s sitting beside her
With a great big smile
The lady had class
It stood out a mile
His heart was beating
Like a big bass drum
Thinking at last
His time had finally come
He started talkin` fast
Trying to loosen up
But he just felt kinda stupid
So he shut up
She said "don`t think I`m fast
`Cause I`m really not"
But his fever went all wild
It was getting hot
She pulled into the driveway
Of a big brown stone
He was champing at the bit
And then her heart be told
She said "My husband`s working
He`ll be gong all day"
But he couldn`t believe it
When he heard himself say
I`m getting Cold Feet
I`m getting Cold Feet
Lady don`t ya hear me talking to you
Hey there`s something that you can do
I`m so nervous I just might shoot you
I`ve got them cold, Cold Feet
Well a couple years on
And our hero`s grown
He`s a professional musician
With a band of his own
Hadn`t had much luck
With the girls that he meets
Might get another case of terminal Cold Feet
He met a girl not too long ago
She thought she could change him
But it wasn`t so
As soon as she mentioned long term romance
He went into that same old song and dance
I`m getting Cold Feet
C-c-c-c-c- Cold Feet
I`m getting Cold Feet
C -c-c-c-c- Cold Feet
Mamma don`t ya hear me talkin` to you
No ain`t there something that you can do
I`m so nervous I just might shoot you
I`ve got cold, cold, cold, cold
Upset about it
Cold, cold, cold, cold
You know I gottem`
Cold, cold, cold, cold
Said I`ve got them cold, Cold Feet
He increased his quota
Of one night stands
It was kind of a complex
You understand
He would treat`em real mean
He was low down and dirty
Now he`s gotta make some changes
Cause he`s nearly thirty
Cause see he had a dream
Just the other night
He was standing in God`s Ever Present Light
And God said, "I`d like to let your life run it`s coarse
But you`d understand I`m having second thoughts"
I`m getting Cold Feet
C-c-c-c- Cold Feet
I`m getting Cold Feet
C-c-c-c- Cold Feet
Richard don`t ya here me talking to you
I think you know what you have to do
You gotta make some changes
You got them
Cold, cold, cold, cold
They`re getting rigid
Cold, cold, cold, cold
You`re getting frigid
Cold, cold, cold, cold
I said you got them cold, Cold Feet
