Well sometimes, I go out, by myself

and I look… across the water,

and I think of all the things,

what you’re doin’

and in my head I paint a picture.

Since I’ve come on home

well somebody’s been a mess

and I’ve missed your ginger hair

and the way you like to dress.

Won’t you come on over?

Stop makin’ a fool, out of me –

why don’t you come on over Valerie?

Valerie yeh,

Valerie… Valerie.

Did you have to go get help,

put your house on up for sale,

did you get a good lawyer?

I hope you didn’t catch a tan,

I hope you’ll find the right man

who’ll fix it for ya.

Are you shoppin’ anywhere,

changed the colour of your hair,

are you busy?

And did you have to pay that fine

that you were dodgin’ all the time,

are you still dizzy?

Since I’ve come on home

well somebody’s been a mess

and I’ve missed your ginger hair

and the way you like to dress.

Won’t you come on over?

Stop makin’ a fool, out of me –

why don’t you come on over Valerie?

Valerie yeh,

Valerie… Valerie.

Well sometimes, I go out… by myself

and I look across the water.

And I think of all the things… what you’re doin’,

and in my head I paint a picture.

Since I’ve come on home

well somebody’s been a mess

and I’ve missed your ginger hair

and the way you like to dress.

Won’t you come on over?

Stop makin’ a fool, out of me –

why don’t you come on over Valerie?

Valerie yeh,

Valerie… Valerie yeh.

Oh Valerie,

oh Valeri-i-i-i-e,

oh Valeri-i-i-i-e yeh,

Va-aleri-i-i-e yeh,

Valerie,

why don’t you come on over Valerie?
