I've Got News for You
Ooh, yeah
You said before we met
That your life was awful tame
Well, I took you to a nightclub
And the whole band knew your name, oh
Let me say to you mama
I've got news for you
Ooh, yeah well, somehow your story just don't ring true, little girl
Well, I've got news for you
Well, you wore a diamond watch
Claimed it came from Uncle Joe
When I looked at the inscription
It said love from Daddy-O
Let me say to you mama
I've got news for you
Ooh, somehow your story don't ring true, little girl
And I've got news for you
Oh, yes I do
Well, you phoned that you'd be late
'Cause you took the wrong express
And then you walked in smiling
With your lipstick all a mess
Oh, let me say to you little mama
I've got news for you
Ooh, yes I do
Well, somehow your story don't ring true, little girl
And I've got news for you, I've got news, I've got news
Whoa, you think that jive will do, little girl
I've got news, I've got news for you
Oh, yes I do
Whoa, I've got news for you
You said before we met
That your life was awful tame
Well, I took you to a nightclub
And the whole band knew your name, oh
Let me say to you mama
I've got news for you
Ooh, yeah well, somehow your story just don't ring true, little girl
Well, I've got news for you
Well, you wore a diamond watch
Claimed it came from Uncle Joe
When I looked at the inscription
It said love from Daddy-O
Let me say to you mama
I've got news for you
Ooh, somehow your story don't ring true, little girl
And I've got news for you
Oh, yes I do
Well, you phoned that you'd be late
'Cause you took the wrong express
And then you walked in smiling
With your lipstick all a mess
Oh, let me say to you little mama
I've got news for you
Ooh, yes I do
Well, somehow your story don't ring true, little girl
And I've got news for you, I've got news, I've got news
Whoa, you think that jive will do, little girl
I've got news, I've got news for you
Oh, yes I do
Whoa, I've got news for you
