In “Nancy Drew,” frontman Matt Thiessen sings about his love for Nancy Drew, a fictional female sleuth from a series of novels that started in the 30’s and continued through the decades, spawning many spin-offs and interpretations.
The song also references Nancy Drew’s male counterparts, The Hardy...
[Verse 1]
I've got this thing for Nancy Drew
Her hair is blonde, her eyes are blue
Yeah, I think I'm falling in love
I wish she'd say she'd marry me
And what she want's a mystery
Yeah, I know it's me she thinks of
[Chorus]
Nancy Drew
I love you
Yes, I do
[Verse 2]
One time these criminals with their guns
They thought it would be fun
To try and kill my Nancy Drew
I jumped out and saved her life
Then asked her to be my wife
She said, "No, I'll never marry you!"
[Chorus]
Nancy Drew
I love you
Yes, I do
[Bridge]
It's a really big mystery
I'll put the Hardy Boys on the case
'Cause no time in history
Has someone denied my face
[Chorus]
Nancy Drew
I love you
Yes, I do
Nancy Drew
I love you
Yes, I do
[Outro]
And I'll be true to you
My Nancy Drew
