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 Tell the girl what I've got to say..ay 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..ay
(BREAK)
Telegram just had to say You've learned your lesson all the way..ay 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 (fade)
