Think About You
Tiny TINY Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Chuck Berry)
Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know,
I found her walking down an uptown street.
She's so fine, you know I wish she was mine,
I get shook up every time we meet.

I'm talkin' bout you,
Nobody but you.
Yes, I do mean you,
Come on and let me get a message to you.

Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know,
I tell ya now she looks so good.
Got so nice skin and such a beautiful lip,
She oughta be somewhere in Hollywood.

I'm talkin' 'bout you,
Nobody but you.
Yes, I do mean you,
Come on and let me get a message to you.

Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know,
She's sitting here by my side.
Lovely indeed, that's why I asked her if she'd,
Promise me someday she would be my bride.

I'm talkin' 'bout you,
Nobody but you.




Yes, I do mean you,
Come on and let me get a message to you.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Chuck Berry's "Let Me Tell You 'Bout a Girl I Know" are essentially a love song about a girl Berry is infatuated with. In the first verse, Berry describes how he came across the girl and how he gets "shook up" whenever he sees her. He then proceeds to sing about her beautiful skin and lips, and how she is attractive enough to be in Hollywood. In the final verse, Berry reveals that the girl is seated next to him and refers to her as "lovely indeed," urging her to promise him that she would be his bride someday.


However, despite being a simple love song on the surface, the lyrics are also reflective of the time period in which they were written. The song was released in 1961, during a time of great social change and upheaval in America. The lyrics are indicative of the cultural norms and values of the 1960s, where men were expected to pursue women and sweep them off their feet. The song is also reflective of the romanticized Hollywood notion of love and relationships.


Overall, "Let Me Tell You 'Bout a Girl I Know" is a classic rock and roll love song that captures the spirit of the era in which it was written.
