Lyrics
I say “hello” to the people I know
In a vague sort of way
Baffled and blue
I go wandering thru the day
Don’t ask me what ails me
What I’m thinking of
One look reveals
That I’m head over heels in love
Chorus
You’ve got me this way, say!
Whatta-ya-gonna do about it?
Whatta-ya-gonna do about it?
You’ve got me this way
Crazy for you
You kissed me one day then
Seein’ that I was true about it
Wha’ did you go and do about it?
You left me this way, bluer than blue
You thought it was funny
My fallin’ so hard
I’m laughin’ my sides off, honey
You’re really a card
You’ve got me this way, say!
Now that I’m in a stew about it
What am I gonna do about it?
I’m just gonna stay crazy for you
