Lovely Rita

Lovely Rita

Lovely Rita meter maid
Lovely Rita meter maid


Lovely Rita meter maid
Nothing can come between us
When it gets dark I tow your heart away


Standing by a parking meter
When I caught a glimpse of Rita
Filling in a ticket in her little white book
In a cap, she looked much older
And the bag across her shoulder
Made her look a little like a military man


Lovely Rita meter maid
May I inquire discreetly
When are you free to take some tea with me?


Took her out, and tried to win her
Had a laugh, and over dinner
Told her I would really like to see her again
Got the bill, and Rita paid it
Took her home, I nearly made it
Sitting on a sofa with a sister or two


Oh, Lovely Rita meter maid
Where would I be without you?
Give us a wink, and make me think of you
