There's a girl downtown with freckles on her nose Pencils in her pocket and ketchup on her clothes She's a real nice girl, pretty as a plate The boys call her Katie when they ask her on a date And who knows Katie?
Maybe you could be the one


There's a boy outside standin' in the rain His hands are in his pockets he's a wonderin' why he came He's a real nice boy, slower than the fall The girls call him Billy if there callin' him at all And who knows Billy?
Maybe you could be the one

Chorus:
But hearts don't fly
And words don't sing
Boys like you can't buy no ring
Love's not stuck
It just moves slow
Turn around a minute
And away we go


Billy walked inside, ordered up a drink
He started gettin' nervous and a wonderin' what she'd think She thought he looked nice, rough around the seams Just the kind of boy who could listen to her dreams And who knows Katie?
Maybe he could be the one

Well, they stepped outside, and took a little walk Katie held his hand and Billy even talked They sat by the pond, they didn't make a sound The night fell easy as the moon came down And who knows baby?
Maybe we could be the one

Repeat Chorus

There's a girl downtown with freckles on her nose Pencils in her pocket and ketchup on her clothes She's a real nice girl, pretty as a plate The boys call her Katie when they ask her on a date And who knows Katie?
Maybe you could be the one
Who knows Katie?
Maybe you could be the one
Who knows baby?
Maybe we could be the one
