i guess you had to be there

storm blew a tree down in my backyard

my axe wouldn't cut it and my saw wouldn't start

good excuse for a trip to the hardware store

to give that little hottie workin' a thrill de' jour

i know that she digs me 'cause when i walked in

here she come a runnin' with a can i help you grin

like a puppy on a leash she followed me around

i left her droolin' at the mouth when i walked out

but i guess you had to be there

to believe what i saw

her blue eyes glued to my liberty coveralls

she didn't have a prayer

but i guess you had to be there

i'm pretty sure she meant to drop that can of w.d. so i could see her bend over in her tight blue jeans

i was eye to eye with taz and a tweety tattoo

forced to play a little game of peek-a-boo

then she led me down the aisle by the pipe and glue

asked me if i had any plumbing to do

hands planted firm on the curve of her hip

looked to me like she was lookin' for a little lip to lip

but i guess you had to be there

to believe what i saw

her blue eyes glued to my liberty coveralls

she didn't have a prayer

but i guess you had to be there

she even did that little finger thingy through her hair

practically undressed me with her playboy stare

i gave her back that look that she was lookin' for

i think that she forgot that we was in that store

but i guess you had to be there

to believe what i saw

her blue eyes glued to my liberty coveralls

she didn't have a prayer

but i guess you had to be there

yeah i guess you had to be there

to believe what i saw

her blue eyes glued to my liberty coveralls

she didn't have a prayer

but i guess you had to be there
