Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Baby's into runnin' 'round, hanging with the crowd
Putting your business in the street, talking out loud
Saying you bought her this and that and how much you done spent
I swear she must believe it's all Heaven sent
[Verse 2]
Hey boy, you better bring the chick around
To the sad, sad truth, the dirty lowdown
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Taught her how to talk like that
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Gave her that big idea
[Verse 3]
Nothing you can't handle, nothing you ain't got
Put your money on the table and drive it off the lot
Turn on that old love light and turn a, "Maybe" to a, "Yes"
Same old schoolboy game got you into this mess
[Verse 4]
Hey son, better get on back to town
Face the sad old truth, the dirty lowdown
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Put those ideas in your head
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
[Verse 5]
Come on back down to Earth, son
Dig the low, low, low, low, lowdown
[Verse 6]
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 running with the Joneses, boy, just ain't where it's at, nah
You're gonna come back around
To the sad, sad truth, the dirty lowdown
[Verse 7]
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Got you thinking like that, boy
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
[Verse 8]
I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Said, I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Oh, look out for that lowdown
That dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty lowdown
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?
Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Got you thinkin' like that
(Who? I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?)
Got you in the fire
Look at that girl in the face from the sadness
Oughta be ashamed of yourself
I wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, who?
