[Verse 1]
Baby, baby, babe
I happened to pass your doorway
Gave you a buzz, that's all
Lately, I thought much about you
So, I thought I'd pay a social call
Do you recall the old days?
We used to have a ball
It's not that I'm lonesome without you
I just thought I'd pay a social call
[Verse 2]
I'd lie and say things are just swell
But to tell the truth
I haven't been too well
So, if you should try to kiss me
I promise I won't stall
'Cause maybe we'll get back together
Starting from this incidental, elemental, simple social call

[Verse 3]
I'd lie and say things are just swell
But to tell the truth
I haven't been too well
So, if you should try to kiss me
I promise I'll give it up
'Cause maybe we'll get back together
Starting from this incidental, elemental, simple social call
