I SAW LINDA YESTERDAY

Dickie Lee

Hey, hey, hey, hey-ay-ay.
Hey, hey, hey, hey-ay-ay.

Nights didn't seem so long no more,
Pain wasn't there like it was before.
Just when I thought I was really okay,
I saw Linda yesterday.

My heart went up, down,
Like a merry-go-round and 'round,
Like a falling star, down, down,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, woh-oh, oh.

Looked like I'd found peace of mind,
Looked like I was gonna make it this time.
Just when I thought I was really okay,
I saw Linda yesterday.

Oh-oh-o, she smiled that same old smile,
My heart was runnin' wild.
My love for her increases,
As I go all to pieces.

Say, hey, dum de dodie-dodie,
Hip,dum de dodie-dodie,
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie-do,
Dum-diddly, dum-diddly, dum-dum-dum.

So, straight to a lonely guy,
Sit around and watch me cry.
People ask what's wrong, I say,
"I saw Linda yesterday."

My heart went up, down,
Like a merry-go-round and 'round,
Like a falling star, down, down,
Oh, oh, oh, dum-didly, dum-didly,
Dum-dum-dum dum.

Hey, hey, dum de dodie-dodie,
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie,
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie-do,
Dum-diddly, dum-diddly, dum-dum-dum-dum.

Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie,
Fade.
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie,
Hip, hip, dum de dodie-dodie...
