Western Union Songtext
von The Five Americans

Things went wrong today
Bad news came my way
I woke up to find
A wire had blew my mind

Western Union man
Bad news in his hand
Knocking at my door
Selling me the score

Fifteen cents a word to read
A telegram I didn′t need
Says she doesn't care no more
Think I′ll throw it on the floor

Got your cable just to day
Killed my groove, I've got to say - ay

Western Union

Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh


Now you've gone away, and
How it′s sad to say you′ve gone

Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh

I remember what they said
Now I'm going out of my head

Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh

Telegram just had to say
You′ve learned your lesson all the way - ay

[BREAK]

Telegram just had to say
You've learned your lesson all the way - ay

Western Union

Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh

I′ll be on my way, 'cause
There′s another girl for me


Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh

I'll be sure of her, and
Things will be as they were

Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh
Duh-dit-duh-dit-duh, duh-dit-duh-dit-duh

Oh, Western Union (duh-dit-duh-dit-duh)
Oh, Western Union (duh-dit-duh-dit-duh)
Oh, Western Union (duh-dit-duh-dit-duh)
Oh, Western Union (duh-dit-duh-dit-duh)
Oh, Western Union (duh-dit-duh-dit-duh)
