Ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, ooh la la

My baby's dancing in a show in town
Said that I could come around and see her there
So I dressed up in a shirt and tie
And found that I was greeted by an icy stare

Ooh la la said the man as he stopped me with his hand
He said you can't go through
She doesn't want you any more
So you just go back through the door
That's what I'm telling you

I said it's raining and I'm getting wet
And if I was a star I bet you'd let me by
Well I got put outside the door
And waited fifteen minutes more
Then had another try

Ooh la la said the man as he stopped me with his hand
He said you can't go through
She doesn't want you any more
So you just walk on through that door
Just like I'm telling you
Ooh la la said the man as he stopped me with his hand
He said you can't go through
She doesn't want you any more
So you just go back through the door
That's what I'm telling you

It seems there's nothing I can do
To see the girl who means the world to me
But still I wait
Perhaps she left the other way
And perhaps the man forgot to say
Because she's very late

Ooh la la said the man as he stopped me with his hand
He said you can't go through
She doesn't want you any more
So you just walk on through that door
That's what I'm telling you

Ooh la la you can't do this to me
I gotta see my baby
Oh let through to see my baby

Oh I gotta see my baby
Yeah she's dancing in the show
Oh you just take that peaked cap off there, baby
Oh yeah, I tell you my baby she's dancing in the show
