Hey, Western Union Man lyrics

Bruce Springsteen

Western Union man
Send a telegram to my baby
Send a telegram, send a telegram, whoa
Send a telegram to my baby

This is what I want you to say
I want you to tell her that I'm all alone
I tried to call her on the phone
Tell her I'm in misery
And I think she's avoiding me
And if the telegram don't do
Send a box of candy too
And maybe some flowers
Tell her that I missed her for hours and hours
Send a telegram, send a telegram, hey
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
Do you hear what I say

Western Union man
Send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram to my baby
Western Union man
Send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram, send a telegram, come on
Send a telegram, man, to my baby

This is what I want you to do
Have you got a man you can send
Well, this is what I want him to do
Get him on with that right away
And see if he can get my message through
No, not, not maybe tomorrow, you've got to mail it right away
I want the girl to know that I missed her
Yes, something like yesterday

Send a telegram, send a telegram, come on
Send a telegram, man, to my baby
Do you hear now what I say

Western Union man
Send a telegram
Oh, send a telegram to my baby
Western Union man
Send a telegram
Oh, send a telegram, send a telegram, send it
Send a telegram, send a telegram to my baby
Do you hear what now I say

Come on
Western Union

Western Union man
Send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram to my baby
Western Union man
Send a telegram, oh
Send a telegram, come on now
Won't you send that telegram right to my baby

Tell her that I'm all alone
Tell her that I'm waiting by the phone
Western Union
Send that telegram right to my baby
Western Union man
Tell her that I need her
And I'm doing all I can
Tell her to come on home
Send that telegram, come on
Send that telegram to my baby
Western Union man
