Jerry Butler - Hey, Western Union Man Lyrics

Oh, western union man
Send a telegram to my baby
Send a telegram, send a telegram
Whoa, send a telegram to my baby

This is what I want you to say
I want you to tell her
That I'm all alone
I tried to call her on the phone

Tell her I'm in misery
And think she's avoiding me
And if the telegram don't do
Send a box of candy too

Maybe some flowers
Tell her that I missed
Her for hours and hours

Send a telegram, send a telegram
Send a telegram man to my baby
And this is what I want you to say

Oh, western union man
Send a telegram
Send a telegram to my baby
Oh, western union man
Oh, send a telegram
Send a telegram, send a telegram
Send a telegram to my baby

This is what I want you to do
Tell me now, have you
Got a boy you can send
This is what I want him to do
Get him on his bike right away
See if he can get my message through

Date it tomorrow
But mail it right away
I want the girl to
Know that I miss her
Something like yesterday

Send a telegram, send a telegram
Oh, send a telegram man to my baby
And this is what I want you to say
Oh, western union man
Oh, send a telegram
Hey, send a telegram to my baby

Western union man, send a telegram
Send a telegram, send a telegram
Send a telegram to my baby
Did you hear what I said

Oh, western union man
Send a telegram, oh
Send that telegram to my baby
Western union man
