Doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo



We had a quarrel

A teenage quarrel

Now I'm as blue as I know how to be

I can't call you on the phone

I can't even see you at your home



So I'm sending you this present

Just to prove that I'm telling the truth

Dear, I believe you won't laugh when you receive

This rose and a Baby Ruth



(Doo, doo, doo, doo)

(Doo, doo, doo, doo)

(Doo, doo, doo, doo, ahh)



I could have sent you an orchid of some kind

But that's all I had in my jeans at the time



But when we grow up

Some day I'll show up

Just to prove I was telling the truth

I'll kiss you, too, then I'll hand to you

This rose and a Baby Ruth



(Doo, doo, doo, doo)

(Doo, doo, doo, doo)

(Doo, doo, doo, doo, ooh)
