Well I saw my baby walkin'
With another man today
Well I saw my baby walkin'
With another man today
When I asked her "What's the matter?"
This is what I heard her say
Chorus:
See you later alligator
After 'while, crocodile
See you later alligator
After 'while, crocodile
Can't you see you're in my way now?
Don't you know you cramp my style?
When I thought of what she told me
Nearly made me lose my head
When I thought of what she told me
Nearly made me lose my head
But the next time that I saw her
Reminded her of what she said
Repeat Chorus
She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy
You know my love is just for you."
She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy
You know my love is just for you
Won't you say that you'll forgive me
And say your love for me is true."
I said, "Wait a minute, 'gator
I know you mean't it just for play."
I said, "Wait a minute, 'gator
I know you mean't it just for play
Don't you know you really hurt me
And this is what I have to say."
Repeat Chorus
See you later alligator, after 'while crocodile
See you later alligator
So long, that's all
Goodbye
