Bop-shoo-wop-shoo-wop-shoo-wop
Bop-shoo-wop-shoo-wop-shoo-wop
What ever happened to the radio
And where did all the fun songs go
Summer fun with the Beach Boys on
But we all know what went wrong
We was young...
FA SOL DO LAm
And so we went out to the dance
Which turned into a whole romance
FA SOL
And after just one night
I never thought that things could be so right
FA SOL DO LAm
Oh no-no no no no-no no
I kissed and hugged her and I said goodbye
Last thing I knew she wouldn't make it alive
Oncoming car went out of control
It crushed my baby and it crushed my soul
Now all I got is sorrow and pain
Standing out here in the rain
The crash, shattering glass, the sirens and pain
It's driving me insane
Oh yeah we was young and in love
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah we was young and in love
And you're the only girl I'm ever thinking of [ no G here ]
