Oh, I went out to do my thing
And I was totally rejected
I put you down for love unknown
But it wasn’t what I expected
So frightened an confused
I came running back you
I got right down on my knees
And said “Darling, won’t you please”
I don’t know why you did it
But I’m not to proud to admit it, baby
Thank you, baby.
Adventure grabbed my heart
And took me away from you, honey
I met all kinds of pretty girls
In every town that I passed through
But that fiery senorita
Burned me down in Mexico
And I got kisses cold as ice
From my Alaskan Eskimo
I feel guilty & ashamed
But I’m gonna say it just the same, baby
Thank you, baby.
