Hey, Western Union Man

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

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 I think she's avoiding me
And if the telegram don't do
Send a box of candy too
Maybe some flowers
Tell her that I missed her for hours and hours

Send a telegram, send a telegram, hey
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
Do you hear what I say?

Western Union man
Send a telegram
Oh, send a telegram to my baby
Western Union man
Send a telegram
Oh, send a telegram, send a telegram, come on
Send a telegram, man, to my baby

This is what I want you to do

Have you got a man you can send
Well, this is what I want him to do
Get him over there right away
And see if he can get my message through
No, not, not maybe tomorrow
You've got to mail it right away
I want the girl to know that I missed her
Yes, something like yesterday

Send a telegram, send a telegram, come on
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
Do you hear now what I say?

Western Union man

Oh, send a telegram to my baby
Western Union man
Send a telegram
Oh, send a telegram, send a telegram, send it
Send a telegram, send a telegram to my baby
Do you hear what now I say? Come on
