. See You Later, Alligator Songtext
von Bill Haley and His Comets

(See you later, alligator)

Well, I saw my baby walkin′ with another man today
Well, I saw my baby walkin' with another man today
When I asked her, "What′s the matter?"
This is what I heard her say

"See you later alligator, after 'while crocodile
See you later alligator, after 'while crocodile
Can′t you see you′re in my way now?
Don't you know you cramp my style?"

When I thought of what she told me
Nearly made me lose my head
When I thought of what she told me
Nearly made me lose my head
But the next time that I saw her
Reminded her of what she said

"See you later alligator, after ′while crocodile
See you later alligator, after 'while crocodile
Can′t you see you're in my way now?
Don′t you know you cramp my style?"


She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy
You know my love is just for you?"
She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy
You know my love is just for you?"
Won′t you say that you′ll forgive me?
And say your love for me is true

I said, "Wait a minute 'gator
I know you mean it just for play"
I said, "Wait a minute ′gator
I know you mean it just for play
Don't you know you really hurt me?
And this is what I have to say"

"See you later alligator, after ′while crocodile
See you later alligator, after 'while crocodile
Can′t you see you're in my way now?
Don't you know you cramp my style?"

See you later alligator, after ′while crocodile
See you later alligator
So long
That′s all
Goodbye!
