Do-do-do, do-do-do do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, do

Do-wah

Don't write me no letters

Don't even telephone

I want you person to person (person to person)

Bring your little fine self on home

Don't send me no message

You know, you know, you know

I'm all alone

I need you person to person

Bring your little fine self on home

Ain't no use to telephone me (no-no, no-no)

I can't love no telephone (no-no, no-no)

All the time you're telephonin' (no-no, no-no)

You could be comin' home (yes-yes, yes-yes)

Ain't no use to send no letter (no-no, no-no)

I can't hold no paper tight (no-no, no-no)

Ain't no use to send no message (no-no, no-no)

It can't talk to me at night (no-no, no-no)

Ain't no use to send your brother (no-no, no-no)

I won't talk to no one else (no-no, no-no)

Ain't no use to send your mother (no-no, no-no)

You just gotta come yourself

Little girl, I have suffered

Umm, each day that you've been gone (gone, gone, gone)

I need you person to person (person)

Oh, bring me your little a-fine self on home!

(Bring your fine self on home)
