That day, I first saw you passing by

I wanted, to know your name but I was much too shy

I was looking at you so hard

Until you must have had a hunch

So you came up to me and asked me my name

Baby, you beat me to the punch

You beat me to the punch

You beat me to the punch, baby

After, I had known you for what seems like a long, long time

I wanted, wanted to ask you would you please, please be mine

Whenever you came around, my heart would pound

So you must have had a hunch

So you came up to me and asked me to be yours

Baby, you beat me to the punch

Beat me to the punch

You beat me to the punch

Since I loved you, I thought you would be true

And love me tender, I let my heart surrender to you, yes I did

But I found out beyond a doubt one day girl

You were a play girl to walk away and leave me so blue

So I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down

This time I'm gonna play my hunch

And walk away this very very day

And beat you to the punch

Baby, I'll beat you to the punch

Baby, I'll beat you to the punch
