(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

When you left me all alone at the record hop
Told me you were goin' out for a soda pop
You were gone for quite a while, half an hour or more
You came back and man oh man this is what I saw

Lipstick on you collar told a tale on you
Lipstick on you collar said you were untrue
Bet your bottom dollar you and I are through
Cuz lipstick on you collar told a tale on you, yeah

(instrumental interlude)

You said it belonged to me, made me stop and think
Then I noticed yours was red, mine was baby pink
Who walked in but Mary Jane, lipstick all a mess
Were you smoochin' my best friend, if the answer's yes

Lipstick on you collar told a tale on you
Lipstick on you collar said you were untrue
Bet your bottom dollar you and I are through
Cuz lipstick on you collar told a tale on you, boy 

Told a tale on you, man

FADE

Told a tale on you, yeah

ROSSETTO SUL COLLETTO
(Lipstick On Your Collar)

Mina (Italy)


Tracce di rossetto
son sul tuo colletto
trova qualche scusa
sai che son gelosa
tu mi devi dire chi
oggi t'ha baciato
non te ne restare lì
dimmi com'è stato.
Non il mio rossetto
c'è sul tuo colletto
quello che io uso
ha un colore rosa
hai dimenticato
che appartengo a te
ed ogni bacio dato
devi darlo a me.

Non il mio rossetto
c'è sul tuo colletto
quello che io uso
ha un colore rosa
hai dimenticato
che appartengo a te
ed ogni bacio dato
devi darlo a me
