One day at school my best friend said
I've got to catch that girl ahead
Then later when my friend I passed
We saw the girl I thought he'd asked

Will the girl ahead be dating you
He grinned and said I don't know yet
Because you see I haven't asked
I can't catch up she walks too fast

It's funny now because we know
The girl ahead walked very slow
Now he tells his kids about the time
He trailed their mom and his friend chimed,

Will the girl ahead be dating you
He grinned and said I don't know yet
Because you see I haven't asked
I can't catch up she walks too fast

Now to the girl it's funny too
Because she says she always knew
That the boy behind went where she led
After she heard us when we said

Will the girl ahead be dating you
He grinned and said I don't know yet
Because you see I haven't asked
I can't catch up she walks too fast
