There's a girl downtown with freckles on her nose Pencils in her pocket and ketchup on her clothes She's a real nice girl, pretty as a plate The boys call her Katie when they ask her on a date And who knows, Katie? Maybe you could be the one
There's a boy outside standin' in the rain His hands are in his pockets, he's wonderin' why he came He's a real nice boy, slower than the fall The girls call him Billy if they're callin' him at all And who knows, Billy? Maybe you could be the one
But hearts don't fly and words don't sing Boys like you can't buy no ring Loves not stuck, it just moves slow Turn around a minute and away we go
Billy walked inside, he ordered up a drink He started gettin' nervous and wonderin' what she'd think She thought he looked nice, rough around the seams Just the kind of boy who could listen to her dreams And who knows, Katie? Maybe he could be the one
Well, they stepped outside and took a little walk Katie held his hand and Billy even talked They sat by the pond, they didn't make a sound The night fell easy as the moon came down And who knows, baby? Maybe we could be the one
But hearts don't fly and words don't sing Boys like you can't buy no ring Loves not stuck, it just moves slow Turn around a minute and away we go
There's a girl downtown with freckles on her nose Pencils in her pocket and ketchup on her clothes She's a real nice girl, pretty as a plate The boys call her Katie when they ask her on a date
And who knows, Katie? Maybe you could be the one Who knows Katie? Maybe you could be the one Who knows baby? Maybe we could be the one
