Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you're doing
And in my head I make a picture

'Cos since I've come on home, well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair and the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over? Stop making a fool out of me
Why won't you come on over, Valerie?
Valerie

Did you have to go to jail?
Put your house on up for sale?
Did you get a good lawyer?
I hope you didn't catch a tan
I hope you find the right man who'll fix it for you
Are you shopping anywhere?
Changed the colour of your hair?
Are you busy?
And did you have to pay the fine
You were dodging all the time?
Are you still dizzy?

Yeah

'Cos since I've come on home, well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair and the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over? Stop making a fool out of me
Why won't you come on over, Valerie?
Valerie

Well, sometimes I go out by myself
And I look across the water
And I think of all the things, what you're doing
And in my head I make a picture

Cos since I've come on home, well, my body's been a mess
And I've missed your ginger hair and the way you like to dress
Won't you come on over, stop making a fool out of me
Why won't you come on over, Valerie?
Valerie
Valerie
Valerie

Yeah, Valerie
