VERSE 1
I went to Paris in France, I found a little romance
She was a-walkin' down the boulevard
I know I should've been good, I never thought that I would
Be double-crossin', baby cross my heart
Oh, a little rockin' and a little wine
Got me thinkin' 'bout a little Valentine
What's a lonely boy to do? She looked so fine



CHORUS
How silly can you get? Yeah yeah
How silly can you get? Ooh yeah
I never ever meant to stray
But when she looked at me that way
The night was young and gay Paris made me forget
How silly can you get? Yeah yeah
How silly can you get? Ooh yeah
I didn't mean to hold her tight
Another fool turned out the light
I only know she’s in my arms to hold tonight


VERSE 2
Next morning woke all alone. Little birdie had flown
Left a number on the telephone
I walked right out in the street. Spreadin' the hole in my jeans
Found a paper with a message on it
Should I call her up or should I tear it up?
If I call her up then we can rip it up
What's a lonely boy to do? She looked so fine


CHORUS
How silly can you get? Yeah yeah
How silly can you get? Ooh yeah
I never ever meant to stray
But when she looked at me that way
The night was young and gay Paris made me forget
How silly can you get? Yeah yeah
How silly can you get? Ooh yeah
I didn't mean to hold her tight
Another fool turned out the light
I only know she’s in my arms to hold tonight



VERSE 3
I went to Paris in France, I found a little romance
She was a-walkin' down the boulevard
I know I should've been good, I never thought that I would
Be double-crossin', baby cross my heart

Oh, a little rockin' and a little wine
Got me thinkin' 'bout that little girl of mine
How could I be so cruel my pet? How silly can you get?
No more foolin' 'round you bet. How silly can you get?
