As I was walkin down rubadub square
Not a chill to the window a little to the air
From another direction she was caught in my eye
It could be an illusion, but I might as well try
..might as well try


She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes 
And I could tell without asking she was into the blues 
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls 
I knew right away she was not like other girls 


Well I ain't never been right as I ain't never been wrong
As everything works out the way it does in this song
Cause once in a while you get shown in the light 
In the strangest of places if you look at it right


(rap) It was the summer of love and I thank the stars above
Because the women took the lovin over me
And just to gain her trust, I bought a microbus
Because I sold off my personal property 


A tie-dyed dress , she was a psychedelic mess
We toured to the north, south, east and west
We sold some mushroom tea,
Sold some ecstasy,
Sold nitrus, opium, acid, heroin and PCP
Now I hear the police coming after me 
Now I hear the police coming after me
The one scarlet with the flowers in her hair,
She's got the police coming after me


Well there ain't nothing wrong with the way she moves
All scarlet begonias and a touch of the blues
And there ain't nothin wrong with the love that's in her eyes
I had to learn the hard way just to let her pass bye.
