Mary Wells You Beat Me to the Punch Lyrics:
That day, I first saw you, oo-wo-oh, oh-oh, passing by,
I wanted, to know your name but I-I-I was much too shy.
But I was looking (lookin') at you so hard,
Until you must have (you must) had a hunch (have had a hunch).
So, you came up to me and asked me my name.
You beat me to the punch,
(You beat me) that time (to the punch).
You beat me to the pu-unch,
(You beat me) oh-ho-ho-hoh (to the punch).
You beat me to the pu-uh-uhunch.
(You beat me to the punch).

Oh, oh, woh, after, I hadn't known you,
For What seems like a long, long time,
I wanted, wanted to ask you,
"Would you please, please be mine?"
Whenever you came (you came) around my heart would pound.
So you must have (you must) had a hunch (have had a hunch).
So you came up to me and aksed me to be yours.
You beat me to the punch,
(You beat me) one more time (to the punch).

You beat me to the pu-unch,
(You beat me) oh-ho-ho-hoh (to the punch).
You beat me to the pu-uh-uhunch, yeah.
(You beat me to the punch).

Since I loved you I thought you would be true.
And love me tender,
So I let my heart surrender.
To you-hoo, yes I did.
But I found out beyond a doubt,
One day, boy, you were a playboy,
Who would go away and leave me blue.

So I ain't gonna wait (gonna wait) around,
For you to put me down,
This time I'm gonna (I'm gonna) play my hunch (play my hunch).
And walk away this a-very day.
And beat you to the punch.
(And beat you) this time (to the punch).
I'll beat you to the pu-unch,
[Fade.]
(I'll beat you) yes, I will (to the punch).
Let you know now, how it feels.
(I'll beat you to the punch.)
Ho ho ho, ho-ho-ha-ho-ho-ho.
(I'll beat you...)
