Lyrics of Hey western union man

Hey western union man
(kenneth gamble/leon huff/jerry butler)

Oh, western union man
Send a telegram to my baby
Send a telegram, send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram to my baby
This is all 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
Think she's avoiding me
If a telegram won't do
Send a box of candy too
Maybe some flowers
Tell her that i miss her for hours and hours
Send a telegram, send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram, oh, to my baby
Do you hear what i say?

Oh, western union man, send a telegram!
Oh, send a telegram to my baby
Western union man, send a telegram!
Send a telegram, send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
This is what i want you to do:

Listen, tell'er
Have you got a boy you can send
This is what i want him to do
Put him on his bike right away
See if he can get a message through
Maybe tomorrow, mail it right away
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.

Western union man, send a telegram
Send a telegram to my baby
Western union man, send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram, send a telegram, send it
Send a telegram, oh, to my baby
Do you hear what i say?

Hey western union man, send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram to my baby
Western union man, send a telegram
Send it, man, send it to my baby (send it, send it)
To my baby, send it right away.

Western union man, send a telegram
Oh, send a telegram to my baby
Western union man, hey, send a telegram.
