Sweet Adeline

Sweet Adeline (You’re Sure Lookin’ Fine)

I went to the bar one time
to get me a glass of wine
when I saw sweet Adeline
I just about lost my mind

sweet Adeline, you’re sure lookin’ fine
I don’t mind if you take your time
‘cause sweet Adeline, you’re su–ure lookin’ fine

well we got somethin’ goin’
and it lasted for a time
but then the train took off with you on board
and you left me far behind

sweet Adeline, you’re sure lookin’ fine
I don’t mind if you take your time
‘cause sweet Adeline, you’re su–ure lookin’ fine

you were gone for a long time
but you never left my mind
now you’re here tonight and the moon is bright
and it lights your hair like wine

sweet Adeline, you’re sure lookin’ fine
I don’t mind if you take your time
‘cause sweet Adeline, you’re su–ure lookin’ fine

so open another bottle
and put your hand in mine
let’s dance until the moon goes down
and the sun begins to shine
