Song Lyrics

Sometimes, the going gets a little bit tough now

(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
When the times get hard
And the friends get few now
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
No one to turn to and
Nothing to do now
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
You're screaming your heart out
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
'Til your back is soaking wet now
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
You still love him so much
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
And still, you can't forget now
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)

Screaming your heart out
Your back gets soaking wet
You know that you used to love him
And still, you can't forget

You know sometimes it's hard
Nowhere to go
No one to love
Tried everything you know

And, ahh, baby
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
And, ahhh, baby
(Oh, baby, don't you weep)
I want you to play
I want you to play a little song

(Do doop doopty doop)
You know, a friend of mine
Told me one time
(Do doop doopty doop)
I think it was back in 1959
(Do doop doopty doop)
He said, darling, you send me
(Do doop doopty doop)
He said, if you call me
I'll come running back to you
(Do doop doopty doop)

And another friend of mine told me
He said, if you need me, call me
(Do doop doopty doop)
You see, I got a lot of friends in my business
And another friend of mine he told me
(Do doop doopty doop)
You better stop dogging
Me around, now
(Do doop doopty doop)

And a recent friend
Of mine, he came up
(Do doop doopty doop)
And you know what he said, it's too late
(Do doop doopty doop)
