SEARCHERS - WESTERN UNION

Things went wrong today
Bad news came my way
I woke up to find
A wire that blew my mind

Western Union man
Bad news in his hand
Knocking at my door
Selling me the score

Fifteen cents a word to read
A telegram I didn't need
Said she doesn't care no more
Think I'll throw it on the floor

Got your cable just today
Killed my groove, I've got to say, hey hey
Western Union

(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)

Now you've gone away
How it's sad to say you've gone

I remember what they said
Now I'm going out of my head

Telegram just had to say
You've learned your lesson all the way, hey hey

Telegram just had to say
You've learned your lesson all the way, hey hey
Western Union

I'll be on my way 'cause
There's another girl for me

(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)

I'll be sure of her and
Things will be as they were
(Da-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da)

Western Union, oh Western Union
Western Union, oh Western Union
Western Union, oh Western Union
