STEPPIN’ IN THE CITY
FEELIN’ LUCKY, FEELIN’ PRETTY
ALL ALONE AND ON MY OWN
AND FLYIN’ HIGH

STOPPED IN TO THE CORNER
WHERE A LOCAL BAND WAS PLAYING
GOT A TABLE AND A HIGHBALL
AND I STARTED TO DIG ON THE MUSIC

I FELT TWO EYES ON ME
AND I TURNED ‘ROUND TO SEE
THERE IN THE DOOR STOOD A MAN
AS FINE AS CAN BE (LOOK OUT)

HE SMILED AS OUR EYES MET
AND I KNEW RIGHT THEN THAT THIS WAS NOT
JUST ANY CHANCE ENCOUNTER
THIS WAS LOVE
(IN WALKED BEAN!)

VOCALESE:
10 BOLTS OF LIGHTNING COULD NEVER HIT ME THE WAY THE SPARKLE IN HIS EYES DID.
HE HAD AN AURA-SOME KIND OF GLOW
HE CAME RIGHT OUT OF NOWHERE. NEVER SEEN HIM.
I’M NOT THE KIND OF GIRL TO FALL IN LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT.
BUT THERE WAS SOMETHING I RECOGNIZED.
IT HAPPENED RIGHT AWAY.
A THING I NEVER FELT BEFORE.
THE CATS ON STAGE THEY SAW ME
FLASHED A GRIN AND CALLED ME TO SIT IN.
I WENT TO THE STAND, COUNTED A TEMPO OFF- AND BURNED
THERE’D NEVR BEEN A MORE CONVINCING INSPIRATION
HE HAD MY HEART RIGHT FROM THE START.
I KNEW THIS WAS IT.
MY IDEAL-THE MOMENT THAT IT SAW HIM WALK IN.
IN WALKED BEAN!
