[Verse 1]

Baby's into runnin' around, hangin' with the crowd

Puttin' your business in the street, talkin' out loud

Sayin' you bought her this and that

And how much you done spent

I swear she must believe it's all heaven sent


[Pre-Chorus]

Hey, boy

You better bring the chick around

To the sad, sad truth

The dirty lowdown


[Chorus]

(Oohooohooohooo)

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)

Taught her how to talk like that

(Oohooohooohooo)

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)

Gave her that big idea


[Verse 2]

Nothin' you can't handle, nothin' you ain't got

Put your money on the table and drive it off the lot

Turn on that old lovelight and turn a "Maybe" to a "Yes"

Same old schoolboy game got you into this mess


[Pre-Chorus]

Hey son

Better get on back to town

Face the sad old truth

The dirty lowdown


[Chorus]

(Oohooohooohooo)

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)

Put those ideas in your head

(Oohooohooohooo)

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)


[Post-Chorus]

Yeah

Come on back down, little son

Dig the low, low, low, low, lowdown!


[Guitar Solo]


[Verse 3]

You ain't got to be so bad, got to be so cold

This dog eat dog existence sure is getting old

Got to have a jones for this, jones for that

This runnin' with the Joneses, boy, just ain't where it's at, no, no


[Pre-Chorus]

You gonna come back around

To the sad, sad truth

The dirty lowdown


[Chorus]

(Oohooohooohooo)

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)

Got you thinking like that, boy

(Oohooohooohooo)

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)


[Outro]

I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who

Said I wonder, wonder, wonder, I wonder who

Oh, look out for that lowdown

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)

That dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty lowdown

(Ooohooohooohooo)

I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who

Ooohooohooohooo

I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who

Got you thinkin' like that

Got you thinkin' just like that

(Ooohooohooohooo)

(I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who)

Lookin' that girl in the face is so sad

I'm ashamed of you

I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder who
