Hey, Western Union Man

[Intro]
Oh, Western Union man
Send a telegram to my baby
Send a telegram, send a telegram, woah
Send a telegram to my baby
This is what I want you to say

[Verse 1]
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
And maybe some flowers
Tell her that I missed her for hours and hours
Send a telegram, send a (telegram), hurry up
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
You hear what I say

[Chorus]
Oh, Western Union man
Send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram to my baby
Western Union man, hey
Send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram, send a telegram, woah
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
This is what I want you to do, listen

[Verse 2]
Tell me, 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 my message through
Maybe tomorrow, but mail it right away
I want the girl to know that I missed her
Something like yesterday
Send a telegram, send a telegram man, woah
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
Do you hear what I say?

[Chorus]
Oh, Western Union man
Why don't you send a telegram?
Oh, send a telegram to my baby
Western Union man
Please send a telegram
Oh, send it, send a telegram, send it
Send it, send it, sent it right on to my baby
Do you hear what I say?

[Outro]
Hey, Western Union man
Send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram to my baby
