Diddle-Dee-Dum:The Belmonts.
#53 on BB Hot 100 in 1962.
INTRO:
I wanna talk awhile, so gather round.
I went to pick up my girl..this is what I found..
she wasn t there and everyone said..
she s gone with someone else instead.
CHORUS:
Diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
(Gee-wah-wah..gee-wah-wah..)
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
#1.
She s telling everyone we re through..now, I don t know
what I ll do.
I cried so much, my eyes are sore..I never felt like this
before.
BRIDGE:
What happens when your love has gone..what happens when
dreams have ended?
When all the time, you thought her love was true, what do
you do?
CHORUS:
Diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
(Gee-wah-wah..gee-wah-wah..)
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
#2.
I tried to call her on the phone..her mother said she wasn t
home.
I wonder where she can be..why did she do this to me?
BRIDGE:
What happens when your love has gone..what happens when
dreams have ended?
When all the time, you thought her love was true, what do
you do?
#3.
You re all mixed up and your head s in a whirl..do you go
out and try to find another girl?
Can you find one that will be true..I just don t know, since
we are through.
#4.
Now, you heard what I had to say..so, I guess I ll be on
my way.
I really have no place to go..I must be boring you, I know.
BRIDGE:
But, that s what happens when your love has gone..that s what
happens when your dreams have ended.
When all the time, you thought her love was true, what do
you do?
CHORUS:
Diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
(Gee-wah-wah..gee-wah-wah..)
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
OUTRO:
Diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..
diddle dee dum dum dum dum..diddle dee dum dum dum dum..(Fade.)
