She was a mixed up, muddled up girl in the rain
Wore his high school ring on a gold-plated chain (Gold-plated chain)
Her skirt was short, tight sweater but her IQ was high

"Don't stand around, go straight to the gym

Most of the girls like to dance but only some of the boys do

His dad was drunk and his mama didn't know he was gone (Know he was gone)
