Текст песне : Prince. Cherry, Cherry.

Rozanda was her real name
But Cherry was her chosen one
Everybody said that she'd soon be dead
But Cherry replied, "At least I had some fun"
(Oh yes)

Her eyes were like a pool of 24 karat diamonds
I was the last in a long line of foolish men who dived in

Cherry, Cherry
I think about you every rising sun
Whoa, Cherry, Cherry
Wherever you are, I hope you're havin' fun
(Oh yes)

Tuesday was my big game
North vs. Central in basketball
Underneath their long coats
Cherry and the girls wore camisoles

Every time North would run the hoop
Cherry would flash 'em and they would fall but not as hard as I fell
When Cherry gave me her number and told me to call
(You should call me)

Using all the money her boyfriend Wilbur gave her
She'd buy anything I wanted
That's why my baby's so fly

Cherry, Cherry
I think about you every rising sun
Whoa, Cherry, Cherry
Wherever you are, I hope you're havin' fun
(Oh yes)

(Do, do, do, do, do)
Me and Cherry got married
And tried our best to keep it on the down low
The down low

I was combing her hair
The day that Wilbur called and cussed her on the phone
He beat her up real bad and figured I was gonna leave her
Instead I bought a 45 and set out to relieve her
(Take him out)

If he was taken out then he could never harm another
No sooner than I got there
I was met by Cherry's mother cryin'

Cherry, Cherry
Every night I ask the Lord why, oh why?
Cherry, Cherry
Another victim of a suicide
(Why, oh why?)
Why?

Cherry, Cherry
I think about you every rising sun
Whoa, Cherry, Cherry
Wherever you are I hope you're havin' fun
I hope you're having fun, baby

Cherry, Cherry
I'd give anything to kiss you
Cherry, Cherry
I guess I just miss you Cherry
