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 paint a picture

´Cause since I´ve come on home
When 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 makin´ a fool out of me
Why don´t you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, 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

Now Are you shopping anywhere
Changed the color of your hair
& Are you busy?

And did you have to pay that fine
That you were dodging all the time
Are you still dizzy?

Since I´ve come on home
When 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 makin´ a fool out of me
Why don´t you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, 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 paint a picture

´Cause 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 makin´ a fool out of me
Why don´t you come on over Valerie?
Valerie, Valerie, Valerie

Valerie, Valerie, Valerie, Valerie
Why don´t you come on over Valerie?
