The Andrew Oldham Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I met her on a Monday and my heart stood still
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)
Somebody told me that her name was Jill
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)
Yes, my heart stood still
Yes, and her name was Jill
And when I walked her home
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)

Picked her up at seven and she looked so fine
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)
Someday soon I'm gonna make her mine
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)
Yes, and she looked so fine
Yes, I'm gonna make her mine
And when I walked her home
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)

(Do, do, do, do, do, do)
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)

(Do, do, do, do, do, do)
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)

(Do, do, do, do, do, do)
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)

(Do, do, do, do, do, do)
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)





(Do, do, do, do, do, do)
(Da doo ron ron ron, da doo ron ron)
