The Girl In The Corner Lyrics - Lovett Lyle

I said howdy there lady 

This sure is some party 

I've never seen anything 

Like this before 

She said howdy there honey 

It's just barely started 

If you think this is something 

Just stand here some more 

Then she looked at me 

Then she laughed at me 

Then she lifted her glass to me 

And the rest they say is history 

I said that girl in the corner 

She looks so pretty 

Oh the girls all around her 

She makes 'em look plain 

Lady I need a drink 

Can I bring you another 

I'm hoping these bubbles 

They might know her name 

Well she looked at me 

Then she laughed at me 

Then she handed her glass to me 

And the rest they say is history 

But when I returned 

Champagne in my hands 

There stood two strangers 

Where we both did stand 

And the lady was gone 

And the evening wore on 

And the girl in the corner 

Was never alone 

But she looked at me 

Then she smiled at me 

Then she turned her eyes away from me 

And the rest they say is history 

Tim he was tall 

And Susan was smart 

And Francis she looked 

Like a fine work of art 

Melissa was sad 

But that made her sweet 

And Dan and Elaine 

Had the world at their feet 

Debra had Pliny 

Lisa had Tony 

And the girl in the corner 

She could've had anybody 

Richard was cool 

And Tubb he was funny 

And the tarot card lady 

She had everyone's money 

So I said my goodbyes 

When it came time to leave 

And as I walked out 

Someone pulled at my sleeve 

She said honey we never did officially meet 

But I sure am happy you came 

She said that girl in the corner 

She's more than pretty 

And man you're not the first 

To look over her way 

But if you still wanted 

I could introduce you 

But you never will be the same 

Then she looked at me 

Then she laughed at me 

Then she extended her hand to me 

And the rest they say is history
