Nadine (Is It You) (originally by Chuck Berry) – George Benson

As I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat I thought I saw my future bride walkin? up the street I shouted to the driver “hey conductor, you must slow down I think I see her please let me off this bus”
Nadine, honey is that you? Oh, Nadine. Honey, is that you? Seems like every time I see you darling you got something else to do
I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back And started walkin toward a coffee colored Cadillac I was pushin through the crowd to get to where she’s at And I was campaign shouting like a southern diplomat
Nadine, honey is that you? Nadine. Honey, where are you? Seems like every time I catch up with you, you’re up to Something new
Downtown searching for her, looking all around Saw her getting in a yellow cab heading up town I caught a loaded taxi, paid up everybody’s tab With a twenty-dollar bill, told him “catch that yellow cab”
Nadine, honey is that you? Oh, Nadine. Honey, is that you? Seems like every time I catch up with you, you’re up to Something new
She moves around like a wayward summer breeze Go, driver, go, go, catch her pretty please Moving through the traffic like a mounted cavalier Leaning out the taxi window trying to make her hear
Nadine, honey is that you? Oh, Nadine. Honey, is that you? Seems like every time I catch up with you, you’re up to Something new
