Текст песни Misc Unsigned Bands - Charity Brown - You Beat Me To The Punch

You Beat Me To The Punch:Charity Brown.
#9 in Canada and #9 BB Hot 100 on &M Records
in 1974.

#1.
That day, I first saw you, whoa-oh, passin' by.
I wanted to know your name but I, I, I was much too shy.
But I was lookin' at you so hard, until you must have 

had a hunch.
So, you came up to me and asked me my name..

You beat me to the punch, that time..you beat me to the 
punch-whoah, oh, oh, oh..you beat me to the pu-a-a-unch.

#2.
Oh, oh, oh, 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..

You beat me to the punch, one more time.
You beat me to the p-unch..oh, oh, oh, oh.
You beat me to the punch, yeah.

BRIDGE:
Since I love you I thought you would be true and love 
me  tender.
So, I let my heart surrender to you-ooo, yes, I did.
But I found out, beyond a doubt, one day, boy, you 
were a playboy, who'd go away and leave me bluuuue.

#3.
So, I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down.
Ah, this time I'm gonna play my hunch..and walk away 
this very day..and beat you to the punch..this time.
I'll beat you to the punch..yes, I will.

Let you know, now, how it feels..oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
I'll beat you to the punch..
