Hey, Mickey
You've been around all night
And that's a little long
You think you've got the right
But I think you've got it wrong
Why can’t you say goodnight
So you can take me home Mickey?
'Cause when you say you will

You're giving me the chills
Baby, please, baby, don't
Every night you still leave me all alone, Mickey

Oh, Mickey, what a pity
You don't understand?
You take me by the heart
When you take me by the hand
Oh, Mickey, you're so pretty
Can't you understand?

Oh, what you do, Mickey, do Mickey
Don't break my heart, Mickey

Every time you move I let a little more show

Anyway you wanna do it
I'll take it like a man
Oh, please, baby, please
Don't leave me in the jam, Mickey
