Why didn't ya try, didn't ya try Didn't ya know I was lonely? (Baby . . . ) Why didn't ya try, didn't ya try (I say, please!) Didn't ya know I was lonely? I stayed home all afternoon, man I was working on my car I fixed the upholstery I fixed the seat so it would tilt back We were going to go to the drive-in And you didn't call me, man I waited It was Friday night I remember, man, it was nine o'clock and I was sitting at home I was still watching television And you didn't try to call me We'd been going steady... for six weeks! And . . . I thought you were my teen-age thrill I thought you were my teen angel, man But you didn't call me I dig you so much, man, why didn't you call me? If you could have seen me in the afternoon, I was hung out there, I even washed the car I, I reprimered the right front fender, man! We were gonna go, we were gonna go out and get some root beer afterwards, man (Baby!) I was gonna show everybody my new carburetor! (Baby!) And you didn't try to call me! (Girl!)
