(Hey, hey, hey, hey-ay, hey, hey, hey, hey-ay)
Nights didn't seem so long no more
Pain wasn’t there like it was before
Just when I thought I was really okay
I saw Linda yesterday
My heart went up, down
Like a merry-go-round and round
Like a fallin’ star, down, down
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Looked like I'd found peace of mind
Looked like I was gonna make it this time
Just when I thought I was really okay
I saw Linda yesterday
Oh, she smiled that same old smile
My heart was runnin’ wild
My love for her is reelin’
As I go off the ceilin’
Hey, hey, dum de dodie-dodie
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie-do
Dum-diddly, dum-diddly, dum-dum-dum
Go straight to a lonely guy
Sit around and watch me cry
People ask what's wrong, I say
I saw Linda yesterday
My heart went up, down
Like a merry-go-round and round
Like a fallin’ star, down, down
Oh, oh, oh, dum-didly, dum-didly, dum-dum-dum
Hey, hey, dum de dodie-dodie
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie-do
Dum-diddly, dum-diddly, dum-dum-dum
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie-do
