Uh-huh huh huhhh.

Let me tell ya now.

Uh-huh.

Mmhhmmm.

When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around.

Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd.

But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took.

Now it's much too late for me to take a second look.

Oh, baby, give me one more chance

To show you that I love you.

Won't you please let me back in your heart?

Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go,

(Let you go, baby.)

But now, since I see you in his arms,

I want you back.

Yes, I do now.

I want you back.

Ooh, ooh, baby.

I want you back.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I want you back.

Na, na, na, na.

Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless night.

Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right.

Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground, yeah.

Following the girl I didn't even want around.

Let me tell ya now.

Oh, darling, all I need is one more chance

To show you that I love you.

Won't you please let me back in your heart?

Oh, darlin', I was blind to let you go,

(Let you go, baby.)

But now, since I see you in his arms...

Oh, ha.

Bum, bum, bum, bum.

All I want...

Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.

All I need...

Bum, bum, bum, bum.

All I want...

Bum, bum, bum, bum.

All I need...

Oh, just one more chance

To show you that I love you.

Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby!

I want you back.

Forget what happened then

(I want you back.)

And let me live again!

Oh, darling, I was blind to let you go,

But now, since I see you in his arms,

I want you back.

Spare me of this cause

(I want you back.)

Give me back what I lost!

Oh, darling, I need one more chance—ha—

I'll show you that I love you.

Baby, oh! Baby, oh! Baby, oh!

I want you back!

I want you back!
