[Verse 1]
“Francine,” when you comin’ home?
Oh, when you comin’ back?
My house is not a home no more
It’s just an “old man’s shack”
I’d really like some “barbeque”
And my laundry’s piling up
I know “it’s only love”
But I just can’t give you up
[Chorus 1]
Oh, “have you heard?”
I’m beggin’ baby please
Wat-cha-go-na-du?
[Verse 2]
Since you took my “Chevrolet”
It’s hard to get around
And “waitin’ for the bus” all day
Has really got me down
I called my “neighbor neighbor” up
To see what they would say
They said I got what I deserved
I think “I just got paid”
[Chorus 2]
Oh, “have you heard?”
I know I broke your rules
Oh, just say the word
I’ve got them “certified blues”
Wat-cha-go-na-du?
