DO WAH DIDDY, DIDDY
(Barry / Greenwich)
Manfred Mann - 1964
There she was just walking down the street,
singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do"
Snapping her fingers and shuffling her feet,
singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
"She looked good (looked good), she looked fine (looked fine)
She looked good, she looked fine and I nearly lost my mind
Before I knew it she was walking next to me, singing
"Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
"Holding my hand just as natural as can be, singing
"Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
"We walked on (walked on) to my door (my door)
We walked on to my door, then we kissed a little more
Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreaming of
Now we're together nearly every single day,
singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
"A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay,
singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
"Well I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)
I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime
Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreaming of
Now we're together nearly every single day,
singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
"A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay,
singing "Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
"Well I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)
I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh yeah
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do, we'll sing it
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do, oh yeah, oh, oh yeah
Do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do
