Is she really going out with him?
Ah!
I gotta a feelin' inside of me
It's kinda strange like a stormy sea
I don't know why, I don't know why
I guess these things have gotta be
I gotta new rose, I got her good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
Like a brand new rose in town
See the sun, see the sun it shines
Don't get too close or it'll burn your eyes
Don't you run away that way
You can come back another day

I never thought this could happen to me
I feel so strange, so why should it be
I don't deserve somebody this great
I'd better go or it'll be too late, yeah
Ah!

    General Comment:does anyone know where the 'Is she really going out with him?' line comes from?
    The Shangri-Las song 'Leader Of The Pack' comes to mind because it shares the same line.
    dose anyone agree?
