As I got on a city bus 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 the bus'

Nadine
Oh, honey, is that you?
Woah, Nadine
Oh, honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I see you, baby
You've got somethin' else to do

Woah, I saw from the corner when she turned and doubled back
And started walkin' toward a coffee colored Cadillac
Pushin' through the crowd, tryin' to get to where she's at
I was campaign shoutin' like a southern diplomat

Nadine
Oh, honey, is that you?
Woah, woah Nadine
Oh honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I catch you, baby
You've got somethin' else to do
You're off with somethin', somethin' new

I'm downtown, searchin' for her, lookin' all around
Saw her gettin' in a yellow cab headin' uptown
I caught a loaded taxi, picked up everybody's tab
Tipped a twenty dollar bill, I said 'You catch that yellow cab'

Nadine
Oh, honey, is that you?
Woah, woah Nadine
Oh honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I catch you, baby
You're off with somethin' new

Seems like every time I see you, baby
You've got somethin' else to do
Seems like every time I see you, baby
You've got somethin' else to do
You've always got somethin' else to do

Nadine, Nadine
Nadine make a scene
Nadine keep it clean
Nadine eat a bean, Nadine
Nadine, Nadine
Nadine, Nadine
