Hi-lee Hi-lo Hi-lup up - up
Hi-lee Hi-lo Hi-left!
Hi-lee Hi-lo Hi-lup up - up
Hi-lee Hi-lo Hi-left!
[Chorus]
Oh, I was left (left), right (right)
Out of your arms
Oh, I was left (left), right (right)
Out of your charms
My heart said I's right (right)
Right from the start
Now I am left, right (right, left)
Out of your heart
Oh, you were such a cute Marine
I really was impressed
You said of all the girls you knew
That you liked me the best
I gave you all my kisses
Surrendered all my charms
But time revealed, you played the field
And I was, left
[Chorus]
You said you'd look me up, up, up
When you got back to town
But when you hit the city
All you did was look around
I caught you with a red-head
And, baby, tho' you said
You're merely warmin'up for me
I figure I was, left
[Chorus]
You called me on the telephone
And said: "Suzie dear
You're bein' mighty silly
In believin' all you hear
You know I love you only
So Suzie save your breath"
But, since my name is Cindy Lou
I know that I was, left
[Chorus]
