[Edwin Starr - You Beat Me To The Punch lyrics]

One day I first saw you on passing by
I wanted to know your name but I was much too shy
I was looking at you so hard until you must have had a hunch
So you came up to me and asked me my name
You beat me to the punch, that time
You beat me to the punch, oh
You beat me to the punch, yeah

Oh! after I had known you for, it seems, for long, long time
I wanted to ask you would you please be mine
When ever you came around, my heart would pound
So you must have had a hunch
So you came up to me and asked me to be yours
You beat me to the punch, that time
You beat me to the punch, oh
You beat me to the punch, yeah

Since I loved you, I thought you would be true and love me tender
So I let my heart surrender to you, yes I did
But I found out beyond a doubt, one day, boy
You were a play boy who would go away and leave me blue

So I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down
This time I'm gonna play my hunch, and walk away this very day
And beat you to the punch this time
And beat you to the punch
And beat you to the punch, yeah
And beat you to the punch, yeah
