Well I went to a dance the other night

Everybody went stag

I said over and over and over again

This dance is gonna be a drag

I said over and over and over again

This dance is gonna be a drag

I said over and over and over again

This dance is gonna be a drag

All at once it happened

Well the prettiest in this world

Please won't you

Come over and talk to me

And be my girl

I said won't you

Come over and talk to me

And be my girl

Please won't you

Come over and talk to me

And be my girl

She said that she was sorry

That I was a little bit late

She would wait and wait

And wait and wait

For her steady date

She would wait and wait

And wait and wait

For her steady date

She would wait and wait

And wait and wait

For her steady date

Now my poor heart was broken

All of my life where had she been

But I'll try over and over and over

And over again

I'll try over and over

And over and over again

I will try over and over

And over and over again
