Hello

Harry, well, hello

Louie, it's so nice

To be back home where I belong

You're lookin' swell, Manny

I can tell, Danny

You're still glowing

You're still crowing

You're still going strong

I feel the room swaying

For the band's playing

One of my old favorite songs

From way back when

So

Bridge that gap, fellas

Find me an empty lap, fellas

Dolly'll never go away again

Hello, Dolly

Well, hello, Dolly

It's so nice to have you back where you belong

You're lookin' swell, Dolly

We can tell, Dolly

You're still glowin', you're still crowin'

You're still goin' strong

We feel the room swayin'

While the band's playin'

One of your old favorite songs from way back when

So

Here's my hat, fellas

I'm stayin' where I'm at, fellas

Promise you'll never go away again

I went away from the lights of 14th Street

And into my personal haze

But now that I'm back in the lights of 14th Street

Tomorrow will be brighter

Than the good old days

(Those good old days!)

Hello, Dolly (well, hello, Dolly)

Well, hello, Dolly (hey, look, there's Dolly)

Glad to see you, Hank

Let's thank my lucky stars (your lucky stars)

You're lookin' great, Stanley

Lose some weight, Stanley?

Dolly's overjoyed and overwhelmed and

Over par

I hear the ice tinkle

See the lights twinkle

And I (you) still get glances

From those handsome men

So

Golly, gee, fellas

Find me a vacant knee, fellas

Dolly'll never go away again

Well, well, hello, Dolly

Well, hello, Dolly

It's so nice to have you back where you belong

You're lookin' swell, Dolly

We can tell, Dolly

You're still glowing

You're still growing

You're still going strong

I hear the ice tinkle

See the lights twinkle

And I (you) still get glances

From you (us) handsome men

So

Wow, wow, wow, fellas (hey yeah!)

Look at the old girl now, fellas (yeah!)

Dolly'll never go away again
