DON'T HANG UP

Original The Orlons version



Don't hang up (no no)
Oh don't you do it now, don't hang up (no no)
Don't hang up like you always do
I know you think our love is true
I'll explain the facts to you
Don't hang up
Give me a chance or our romance is through

Don't hang up (no no)
Oh don't you do it now, don't hang up (no no)
I took a walk with Mary Lou
I ran around to visit Sue
She had some boys I never knew
Don't hang up
They took a ride so baby I went too

Stopped at the record hop
I had to be a sport
We jumped and we did the slop
Then you walked in and I was caught

Don't hang up (no no)
Oh don't you do it now, don't hang up (no no)
'Cause you got some explaining too
Ah like that chick I saw with you
So talk fast like you always do
Don't hang up
You've got one chance or our romance is through

Then you walked in and you were caught
Don't hang up (no no)
Oh don't you do it now, don't hang up (no no)
I didn't say our love was through
But if we made a fool for two
'Cause making up is fun to do
Don't hang up
'Cause no one else will ever do but you

Don't hang up (no no)
Oh don't you do it now, don't hang up (no no)
Or you'll be sorry baby, don't hang up (no no)
You know I love you baby, don't hang up...
[Fades out]
