Moscow

lyrics

Well I had a red haired girl from Moscow
And she said 'doo doo doo' "I love you"
Well I swear while you're in your underwear, I love you too
Oh yes I do

Well I had a fair heart and mind to leave you
But you said 'doo doo doo' "I love you"
Well I must confess while you're in your nightdress I love you too
Oh yes I do

And now the sun is down, and who can turn my frown around? Not you
You left me, now that's absurd; I moved on or so you heard; it's true

Well my red haired girl moved up to Boston
Called me up and said 'doo doo doo' "I love you"
Well I swear while you're living way up there I love you too
Oh yes I do

Oh what a big surprise; the tears cascaded from your eyes as proof
Please oh please just take me back; I've been a fool; I always loved you too

Well my red haired girl moved back to Moscow, and I said 'doo doo doo' "I love you"
She said "I don't care, you've been unfair"
Please forgive me; I've been such a fool, but I love you

Oh yes I do, oh yes I do, oh yes I do, oh yes I do, oh yes I do.
