| You said before we met
|
| That your life was awful tame
|
| Well, I took you to a night club
|
| And the whole band knew your name
|
| Oh well, baby, baby, baby
|
| I’ve got news for you
|
| Oh, somehow your story don’t ring true
|
| Well, I’ve got news for you
|
| Well, you phoned me you’d be late
|
| 'Cause you took the wrong express
|
| And then you walked in smiling
|
| With your lipstick all a mess
|
| Oh, let me say to you little mama
|
| Wo, I’ve got news for you
|
| Ah, your story don’t ring true lil' girl
|
| Yeah, I’ve got news for you, baby
|
| Oh, you wore a diamond watch
|
| Claimed it was from Uncle Joe
|
| When I looked at the inscription
|
| It said, 'Love from Daddy-o'
|
| Oh, well baby, wo lil' girl
|
| I wanna say I’ve got news for you
|
| Ah, if you think that jive will do
|
| Let me tell you, oh, I’ve got news for you
|
| Well, somehow your story don’t ring true
|
| Wo, I’ve got news for you, oh, oh |
