As I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat
I thought I saw my future bride walking 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 walking toward a coffee colored Cadillac
I was pushing through the crowd trying to get to where she's at
I was campaign shouting like a southern diplomat
Nadine honey is that you
Oh 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 wave of summer breeze
Go driver go go catch her for me 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 see you
Darling you're up to something new hooh
