Come out Come out wherever you are
The Rat Pack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come out, come out, wherever you are (come out, come out)
I know, I know you're not very far
How I wish you'd hurry `cause I'm inclined to worry
These arms of mine are open, hopin' you'll appear
Where are ya, dear?
Come out, come out, wherever you are (wherever you are)
Come out, come out from under that star
Yes, and incidentally, (do ya mean) ment'lly I'm not up to par
So come out, come out, come out wherever you are
Come on out, come out, wherever you are
I know, I know you're not very far
If I sound too eager, my love life has been meager
I'm just about to blow up, so show up, will ya, gal?
And be a pal
Come on out, come out, wherever you are (wherever you are, you are)
Take off (take off) take off from your Shangri-La
I have tried relaxin', Jackson, but it's the final bow
So come out, come out, come out wherever you are
(So come on out, babe)
Wherever you are (So come on out, babe)




Wherever you are (So come on out, babe)
Wherever you are
