I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back to see
If I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back at me
You were cute as you could be standin' lookin' back at me
And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company

One Sunday afternoon as I was ridin' down the street
I met a cute little girl all dressed up so sweet
And the way that she was stacked I wish I'd had a Cadillac
For who would notice me just drivin' this model T

I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back to see
If I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back at me
You were cute as you could be standin' lookin' back at me
And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company

(Instrumental Break)

Now listen, baby, it don't matter to me
Even in your model T you're as cute as you can be
If you'll take me for a ride, I will stay close by your side
And I will guarantee we'll have fun, oh, man alive

I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back to see
If I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back at me
You were cute as you could be standin' lookin' back at me
And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company

Oh me, oh gee, perhaps you'd notice me
If I wadn't drivin' this model T

I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back to see
If I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back at me
You were cute as you could be standin' lookin' back at me
And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company
