Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wait just a minute, Mr. Look So Good
Wham bam, wham bam
Wham bam, wham bam
Wham bam, wham bam (bring it all up)
Wham bam, thank you ma'am, wham bam, thank you ma'am
Wham bam, thank you ma'am, wham bam, thank you ma'am
Let me tell you one thing before you walk out the door
You took my money

You took my heart, you took my love, you took my body
But when you touched my money you took too much
Never will you grace these doors again
Get out, and take that dog with you
It?s over for me
You want me to give you a ride?
I'm sorry, there's something in the boots
Oh my God, what have I said?
don't go, I love you
I love you, I love you!!!
Wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh), wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh)
Wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh), wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh)
Wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh), wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh)
Wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh), wham bam, thank you ma'am (oh)
Ooh!
No! Oh my God
No! Oh my God, oh my God
Wait a minute, let me tell you something
You little run over crustation
Let me tell you one thing before you walk out the door
You took my money
You took my heart, you took my love, you took my body
But when you touched my money you took too much
Never will you grace these doors again
Get out, and take that dog with you
It's over for me
Oh my God, what have I said?
don't go, no, come back
Ooh! Ooh!
Ooh! Ooh!
It's over, it's over, it's over, it's over
It's over, it's over, it's over for me
Oh my God
What have I said? But I loved you
I loved you, I love you
I love you, I love you!!!
I loved you, I loved you
I loved you, I loved you

I loved you, I loved you
I loved you
