Lyrics + translation · letras.mus.br

🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Raspberry beret
  • And if it was warm, she wouldn't wear much more
  • Raspberry beret
  • I think I love her

Sing it again — final chorus

  • Raspberry beret
  • I think I love her
  • The rain sounds so cool when it hits the barn roof
  • And the horses wonder who you are
raspberryberetkind
