| I went to a hop with my boyfriend
|
| We were dancing to our favourite song
|
| Somebody turned out the lights and he walked away
|
| He said he wouldn’t be gone too long
|
| I struck a match and there he was a kissing her
|
| I struck a match and there he was a holding her
|
| It took a match to catch him doing me wrong
|
| Well it was dark and I couldn’t see her face
|
| But I saw her hitting on my guy
|
| All the kids were dancing and having fun
|
| But I couldn’t do a thing but cry
|
| I struck a match and there he was a kissing her
|
| I struck a match and there he was a holding her
|
| It took a match to catch him doing me wrong
|
| Well I wiped away the tears and turned my head
|
| So no-one could see
|
| But my girlfriend heard me crying asked me
|
| So I said, a match burned me
|
| The lights went on at the hop
|
| And my boyfriend came back to my side
|
| He said he went for a soda
|
| I said honey I know you’ve lied
|
| Cos I struck a match and I saw you kissing
|
| I struck a match and you were holding her
|
| It took a match to catch him doing me wrong
|
| I wiped away the tears and turned my head
|
| So no-one could see
|
| Well my boyfriend heard me crying asked me
|
| So I said, a match burned me
|
| I struck a match and there he was a kissing
|
| I struck a match and he was holding her
|
| It took a match to catch him doing me wrong
|
| Doing me wrong, yeah doing wrong, yeah doing me wrong, he was doing me wrong |
