Frankie Lymon and The Teenagers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you want
A true lover
Send for me...send for me
You'll never want
Any other
Send for me...send for me
I promise you
I'll be true
Send for me...send for me

Anytime just tell me
Your problems
And you'll find out, baby
I'll solve 'em
If you're late one mornin'
Don't hurry
If you've got big trouble
Don't worry
Just depend
On your friend
Send for me...send for me

A-mornin', noon and night
In the early bright
Don't you fret, my pretty pet
I'm gonna treat you right

Don't you dare
Raise a hair
I'm gonna share
Your every care
Anywhere
Oh, yeah
Send for me...I'll be there

[Instrumental Interlude]

Anything
That upsets you
Send for me...send for me
I'll be there
To protect you
Wait and see...wait and see
Don't delay
Right away
Send for me...send for me

It's gonna be
Twiddle-deee
Yes sirree
You and me




Faithfully
Send for me
