I kept putting it off like I always do
|
Had one clean sock but a man needs two
|
So I drove on down to the wash 'n wear
|
I swear it was a hundred and ten there
|
|
She was folding her clothes by the coke machine
|
Hottest thing I'd ever seen
|
Cotton dress clinging to her like a glove
|
It took all of a minute to fall in love
|
|
I'd a bet you a hundred that I'd never find
|
That one in a million
|
That one of a kind
|
I was standing still, spinning my wheels
|
When I came face to face with the real deal
|
|
You're gonna need some help, she said with a smile
|
Or, boy, you're gonna be here a while
|
If you pay for dinner we can call it square
|
I took her hand and we took it from there
|
|
I'd a bet you a hundred that I'd never find
|
That one in a million
|
That one of a kind
|
I was standing still, spinning my wheels
|
When I came face to face with the real deal
|
|
Love's gonna do what love's gonna do
|
You can't make love happen to you
|
I was lookin' too hard for love that true
|
The real deal came out of the blue
|
|
I'd a bet you a hundred that I'd never find
|
That one in a million
|
That one of a kind
|
I was standing still, spinning my wheels
|
When I came face to face with the real deal
|
|
Now I know how good it feels
|
To come face to face with the real deal
|
