Now, I was just being friendly

No need to act like that

Don't call that policeman girl

I take what I said back

How was I to know that you weren't that kind of girl

It's kind of hard to tell, nowadays anyway.



Can't we talk this over, come here

I'm sorry if you've been offended

It wasn't what I'd intended

I take back every word I said.



I was looking for someone to tell my troubles to

That's all I wanted to do, honestly

I'm a family man and my family mustn't know

Where I go in the evenings.



Now, I was just being friendly

No need to act this way

All I did was ask you

How much I'd have to pay

How was I to know that you weren't that kind of girl

It's kind of hard to tell, nowadays anyway.

Now, I was just being friendly

Wish you could understand

This wasn't meant to happen

This wasn't what I'd planned

How was I to know that you weren't that kind of girl

It's kind of hard to tell, nowadays anyway.
