                      Hey, yeah, yeah.

Verse 1:

                                 
I was walking down the street, (doo waddy wah),
                                     
When this boy started following me, (oh yeah).
                                         
Now I ig-nored all the things he said, (doo wady wah),
                       
He moved me in every way.

Bridge 1:

                                
With his collar unbuttoned, on my side he was strut'n'. Girls...

Chorus 1:

                             
He was really saying something,

 Bop bop, shoo be doo wah,
                        
 Bop bop, shoo be doo wah.

Verse 2:

                                    
He flirted ev'ry step of the way, (doo waddy wah),
                                   
I could hear ev'ry word he'd say, (oh yeah).
                                  
My re-sistance was getting low, (doo waddy wah),
                              
And my feelings started to show.

Bridge 2:

                        
My heart started thumping, blood pressure jumping.

Chorus 2:

                             
He was really saying something,
                      
 Really saying something.

 Bop bop, shoo be doo wah,
                        
 Bop bop, shoo be doo wah.

Verse 3:

                           
He walked me to my door, (doo waddy wah),
                                 
I a-greed to see him once more, (oh yeah).
                            
 Lady like it may not be, (doo waddy wah),
                             
But he moved me tre-mendous-ly.

Bridge 3:

                        
Al-though he was bold, my heart he stole. Girls...

Chorus 3:

                             
He was really saying something,
                      
 Really saying something.

 Bop bop, shoo be doo wah,
                        
 Bop bop, shoo be doo wah.
