Intro : Lovely Rita meter maid  Lovely Rita meter maid Lovely Rita meter maid, Nothing can come between us. When it gets dark I tow your heart away. Standing by a parking meter, When I caught a glimpse of Rita, Filling in a ticket in her little white book. In a cap she looked much older, And the bag across her shoulder Made her look a little like a military man. Instrumental : Lovely Rita meter maid,  May I inquire discreetly, When are you free to take some tea with me ? Ah !...                                        Instrumental : Took her out and tried to win her. Had a laugh and over dinner, Told her I would really like to see her again. Got the bill and Rita paid it. Took her home I nearly made it, Sitting on the sofa with a sister or two. Instrumental : Oh, lovely Rita meter maid, Where would I be without you ? Give us a wink and make me think of you.
