MEET ME ON THE CORNER (DOWN AT JOE'S CAFÉ)
(Tony Macaulay / B.J. Ben Mason)

Peter Noone


Meet me on the corner down at Joe's cafe,
We won't have long, so don't be late.
You'd better hide the car, your mom and pop can't know,
The secret place we go.

Come on and meet me on the corner, I'll be there at eight.
We won't have long, so don't be late.
We'll talk it through, just me and you alone,
In our hideaway.................
On the corner down at Joe's cafe.

Your mama and your papa say I'm just no good.
I'm always makin' trouble in the neighborhood.....
They don't understand, I'm aching inside,
So until the day we don't have to hide,
Baby, this is what you gotta do........

Step out and meet me on the corner down at Joe's cafe,
We won't have long, so don't be late.
You'd better hide the car, your mom and pop can't know,
The secret place we go.

Come on and meet me on the corner, I'll be there at eight.
We won't have long, so don't be late.
We'll talk it through, just me and you alone,
In our hideaway.................
On the corner down at Joe's cafe.

Now, the only time I see you, girl, is after school.
I'm not allowed to kiss you, it's against the rules.
They don't understand, I'm aching inside,
So until the day we don't have to hide,
Baby, this is what you gotta do........

Step out and meet me on the corner down at Joe's cafe,
We won't have long, so don't be late.
You'd better hide the car, your mom and pop can't know,
The secret place we go.

Come on and meet me on the corner, I'll be there at eight.
We won't have long, so don't be late.
We'll talk it through, just me and you alone,
In our hideaway.................
On the corner down at Joe's cafe.
