Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So you met someone and now you know how it feels, goody goody
So you gave him your heart too, just as I gave mine to you
And he broke it in little pieces, now how do you do
So you lie awake just singin' the blues all night, goody goody
So you think that love's a barrel of dynamite
Hooray and hallelujah, you had it coming to ya
And I hope you're satisfied you rascal you!

So you met someone who
Set you back on your heels
Goody goody!
So you met someone and
Now you know how it feels
Goody goody!
So you gave him your heart too
Just as I gave mine to you
And he broke it in little pieces
And now how do you do?
So you lie awake
Just singing the blues all night
Goody goody!
So you think that love's a
Barrel of dynamite
Hurray and hallelujah!
You had it coming to ya
Goody goody for him
Goody goody for me
And I hope you're satisfied
You rascal you... hey!
So you met someone who
Set you back on your heels
Goody goody!
So you met someone and
Now you know how it feels
Goody goody!
So you gave him your heart too
Just as I gave mine to you
And he broke it in little pieces
And now how do you do?
So you lie awake
Just singing the blues all night
Goody goody!
So you think that love's a barrel
Of dynamite
Oo-oo, hurray and hallelujah!
You had it coming to ya
Goody goody for him
Goody goody goody for me!
Your love has been denied
You've been taken for a ride
And I hope you're satisfied
You rascal you!
