about

Our take on this Chuck Berry mega hit from 1964.

lyrics

NADINE (C. Berry)
As I got on a city bus and 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 this bus

Nadine, honey is that you?
Oh, Nadine. honey, is that you?
Seems like every time I catch up with you, you got something else to do

I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back
I started walkin toward a coffee colored cadillac
I was pushin through the crowd tryin to get to where she's at
and I was campaign shouting like a southern diplomat

Downtown searching for her, looking all around.
Seen her getting in a yellow cab heading up town
I caught a loaded taxi, paid up everybody's tab
Flipped a fifty dollar bill, said catch that yellow cab.

She moves around like a wayward summer breeze,
Go, driver, go on, catch her for me please.
Moving thru the traffic like a mounted cavalier
I was leaning out the taxi window trying to make her hear
