INTRO:
Sha-da..sha-da..sha-da..
#1.
When I take my baby home at night, I can t wait to
kiss and hold her tight.
But by then the time begins to drag when she starts
searching through her bag.
(She says, Just a moment, please. I can t find my keys.
And here s what happens while he s waiting for her squeeze.)
CHORUS:
She pulls out lipstick, powder, bubble gum and bobby pins.
But she can t find her keys..(her keys.)
Curlers, tweezers, cold cream and candy bars.
But she cant find her keys her keys..(her keys.)
Nail file, school books, an autograph of Fabian..she can
find with ease.
But I m standing here waiting for a goodnight
kiss..cause she can t find her keys.
(Sha-da..sha-da..sha-da..she can t find her keys.)
#2.
I give up, go home and go to sleep..but next night my date
with her I keep.
Walk her home, we start to kiss and then..it all starts
happening again. (She says, just a moment please I cant find
my keys.)
And here s what happens while he s waiting for her squeeze.
CHORUS:
She pulls out gumdrops, glasses, magazines and tangerines..
but she can t find her keys..(her keys.)
Presley records, hair spray and jelly beans..but she can t
find her keys..(her keys.)
Eyebrow pencils, perfume and potato chips and portable batteries.
But I m standing here waiting for a goodnight kiss, cause she
can t find her keys.
(But he s standing here waiting for a goodnight kiss..cause she
can t find her keys.)
OUTRO:
She pulls out frozen custard, piano bench, pretzels and a monkey
wrench, tennis racket, army cots, pumpkin seeds and coffee pots..
watermelons, goal post, a rabbits foot and French toast..fire
hydrant, ash can, TV set, electric fan..but she can t find her
keys.
