lyrics: 
  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
  
  [Chorus 2: Paul McCartney and (Lennon, McCartney & Harrison)]
  Lovely Rita, meter maid
  May I inquire discreetly (Lovely Rita)
  When are you free to take some tea with me? (Lovely Rita maid! Ahh-ah-ah)
  Rita!
  
  
  Oh, lovely Rita meter maid
  Where would I be without you?
  Give us a wink and make me think of you
  
  [Outro: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, & George Harrison and (Paul McCartney)]
  Lovely Rita meter maid (Lovely meter maid)
  Lovely Rita meter maid (Rita meter maid)
  Lovely Rita meter maid (Oh Lovely Rita, meter meter maid)
  Lovely Rita meter maid
  Ah da, ah da, ah da, ah da
  Ah da, ah da, ah da, ah da
  Ah da, ah da, ah da, ah da
  Ah da, ah da, ah da, ah da
