Why Me Songtext
von Albert Cummings

Well, I met her in a nightclub over on the Lower East Side
I was working with my hair down, tryna give a groove a light
Well, she looked like a bunny out of playboy magazine
I guess I had to meet her, she was the cutest thing I′d ever seen

She had high-heeled boots, blonde hair, and big blue eyes
Well, the way she was movin'
Through the music, had me hearin′ the tide
When I played it up to her, I said, baby, what's your name?
I should've known better now, only got myself to blame


I said, why, why, why me?
Well, fallin′ like this is the very last thing I need
Well, if I hadn′t sent you, I'd turn right around and leave
I said, why, why, why, why me?

Well, we started drinkin′ champagne, didn't ever join a town
Well, I′d spend a hundred dollars every time I turned around
Well, by the time my money ran out, you know, my honey was gone
And I was cryin' out loud to myself as I was walkin′ home

I said, why, why, why me?
I said, fallin' like this is the very last thing I need
Well, if I hadn't sent you, I′d turn right around and leave
I said, why, why, why, why me?

I said, why, why, why, why me?
I said why, why, why, why me?
