Western Union - The Five Americans/The Searchers/The Ventures

Western Union

Things went wrong today

Bad news came my way

I woke up to find

That I 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 today

Killed my groove I've got

To say

Western Union

Dit, da dit, da dit (8x)

Now you've gone away, and

How it's sad to say you've gone

I remember what they said

Now I'm going out of my head

Telegram just had to say

You've learned your lesson

All the way

(Instrumental break)

Telegram just had to say

You've learned your lesson

All the way

Western Union

Dit, da dit, da dit (8x)

I'll be on my way, 'cause

There's another girl for me

I'll be sure of her, and

Things will be as they were

Western Union

Oh, Western Union

Western Union

Western Union (fades)
