GIVE ME A CHANCE (4 times)
She walked up to me in the cafeteria
And I began to prespire
She said there's one thing I wanna ask ya
She began her enquire
CHORUS
Won't you give me a chance
Let me take you to the backwards dance
I don't know why
Maybe I'm just shy
I said I'm sorry baby but I can't go
Cos that's the night I'm gonna
Count up the money I've been saving
To buy a saxophone
A girl snuck up on me while I'm standing by my locker
My face began to turn red
She said you don't dig my sister
But I know you want me
I said "No" & then she said
CHORUS
Maybe I could be having fun
But baby you chill me like a gun
I'm sitting all alone in the bedroom of my home
Feeling lonely & down low
Everyone I've ever known is hoppin' at the dance
Why did I ever say "no"
CHORUS
