Lovely Rita lyrics

Lovely Rita meter maid

Lovely Rita meter maid

Lovely Rita meter maid,

Nothing can come between us.

When it gets dark I tow your heart away.

Standing by a parking meter,

When I caught a glimpse of Rita,

Filling in a ticket in her little white book.

In a cap she looked much older,

And the bag across her shoulder

Made her look a little like a military man.

Lovely Rita meter maid,

May I inquire discreetly,

When are you free to take some tea with me?

(Rita!)

Took her out and tried to win her.

Had a laugh and over dinner,

Told her I would really like to see her again.

Got the bill and Rita paid it.

Took her home I nearly made it,

Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two.

Oh, lovely Rita meter maid,

Where would I be without you?

Give us a wink and make me think of you.
