Lyrics
Down on the corner, she?s looking at me
My but she?s pretty, baby can?t you see
Dark brown eyes and a pretty, pretty smile
Go on over, and talk just for a while
Oooh!, Oh baby!
Down on the corner talking to that girl
Baby you?re something, come and join my world
And she?s smiling, now I ain?t so bold
She whispered in my ear, my blood ran cold
CH: I wanna marry (Arghhhh!!!)
I wanna marry (No,no,no!)
I wanna marry (Oooh!)
I wanna marry you
Down on the corner, it?s started to rain
she?s moving quickly, ooh! what a pain
my heart is pounding in my head
She took me by the hand and this is what she said
CH:
Mid: Down on the corner, she?s waiting for me
She?s got my number, what?s it gonna be?
I?ll leave the country, I?ll run and hide
or I?ll have to lock myself inside, don? wanna marry
Down on the corner, she?s looking for me
My but she?s pretty, baby can?t you see
I?d love to linger, and talk awhile
and still avoid, the centre aisle
CH: (Don? wanna marry... X 2)
