As I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat
I thought I saw my future bride a-walking up the street
I shouted to the driver "Hey conductor, you must slow down
I think I see her, please let me off this bus"

Nadine, honey is that you?
Oh Nadine, honey is that you?
It seems like every time I see you darlin' you got somethin' else to do

Yeah I saw her on the corner when she turned and doubled back
And started walkin' toward a coffee colored Cadillac
Yeah walk through the crowd tryin' to get to where she's at
And I was campaign shoutin' like a southern diplomat

Nadine, honey is that you?
Oh Nadine, honey is that you?
Yeah it seems like every time I catch ya
You're on to somethin' new

Yeah downtown searchin' for her, lookin' all around
I saw her gettin' in a yellow cab a-headin' uptown
I caught a loaded taxi, paid everybody's tab
Slipped a twenty dollar bill, told him "Catch that yellow cab"

Nadine, honey is that you?
Oh Nadine, honey is that you?
It seems like every time I see you you got somethin' else to do

Yeah she movin' all around like a wayward summer breeze
Go, driver, go catch her for me, please
Movin' through the traffic like a mounted cavalier
Leanin' out the window and I hope that she can hear

Nadine, honey is that you?
Oh Nadine, honey is that you?
It seems like every time I see you you got somethin' else to do

Nadine, honey is that you?
Oh Nadine, honey is that you?
It seems like every time I see you you got somethin' else to do

Eric Church

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
