(repeat chorus)
I went to a dance just the other night
I saw a girl there she was out of sight
I asked a friend of mine who she could be
He said that her friends just call her Sweet Pea
(chorus)
Oh, Sweet Pea
Come on and dance with me
Come on, come on, come on and dance with me
Oh, Sweet Pea
Won't you be my girl
Won't you, won't you, won't you be my girl
I walked on over and I asked her to dance
Thinkin' maybe later on
We'd be makin' romance
But every guy there was thinkin' like me
I had to stand in line
To get a dance with Sweet Pea
(repeat chorus)
I finally got to whisper sweet words in her ear
Convinced her that we oughta get away from there
We took a little walk
I held her close to me
And underneath the stars I said to Sweet Pea
(repeat chorus)
I saw a girl there she was out of sight

Come on, come on, come on and dance with me
Oh, Sweet Pea
Won't you be my girl
Won't you, won't you, won't you be my girl
Thinkin' maybe later on
We'd be makin' romance
But every guy there was thinkin' like me
I had to stand in line
To get a dance with Sweet Pea
Convinced her that we oughta get away from there
We took a little walk

And underneath the stars I said to Sweet Pea

Great song, but I have a serious problem with it.
So, this dude meets a girl who is, and I quote, outta site. Like, ok, but what about her is special? And if every single guy there wants her, what makes this dude special? I mean, again, great song, but I am just not convinced either of these vapid basic bitches are worthy of any of it.
