It Should've Been Me

Ray Charles

As I passed by

A real fine hotel

A chick walked out

She sure looked swell

I gave her the eye

And started to carry on

When a Cadillac cruised up

And 'swish' she was gone



It should've been me

With that real fine chick

It should've been me

With that real fine chick

Hey hey hey, hey, driving that, Cadillac



A little later on

A theater I passed

I spotted another chick

And did she have class

I was all set

To write her name in my book

When her husband came up and gave me a

Real dirty look



It should've been me

With that real fine chick

It should've been me

With that real fine chick

It should've been me

To have been her chaperone



When I got to the corner

I saw a sharp cat

With a 300 dollar suit on

And a 100 dollar hat

He was standing on the sidewalk

By a DynaFlow

When a voice within said,

"C'mon daddy, let's go."



It should've been me

With that real fine chick

It should've been me

With that real fine chick

It should've been me

Hey hey hey, hey, driving that, DynaFlow



I ate a bowl of chili

And I felt OK

At least until I passed

This fine Cafe

I saw a guy eatin'

A great big steak

While a waitress stood by feedin' him

Ice cream and cake



It should've been me

With that real fine chick

It should've been me

With that real fine chick

You know, it should've been me

Eatin' ice, cream and cake



It should've been me

Gettin' my natural kicks

It should've been me

Gettin' my natural kicks

Hey hey hey, hey, lovin' those, crazy chicks
