| Well I saw my baby walkin', |
| With another man today, |
| Well I saw my baby walkin' |
| With another man today. |
| When I asked her "What's the matter?" |
| This is what I heard her say. |
|
| Chorus: |
| See you later alligator, |
| After 'while, crocodile. |
| See you later alligator, |
| After
awhile, crocodile. |
| Can't you see you're in my way now? |
| Don't you know you cramp my style? |
|
| When I thought of what she told me, |
| Nearly made me lose my head, |
| When I thought of what she told me, |
| Nearly made me lose my head. |
| But the next time that I saw her, |
| Reminded her of what she said. |
|
| Repeat Chorus |
|
| She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy, |
| You know my love is just for you." |
| She said, "I'm sorry, pretty daddy, |
| You know my love is just for you, |
| Won't you say that you'll forgive me, |
| And say your love for me is true." |
|
| I said, "Wait a minute, 'gator, |
| I know you
meant it just for play." |
| I said, "Wait a minute, 'gator, |
| I know you
meant it just for play. |
| Don't you know you really hurt me, |
| And this is what I have to say." |
|
| Repeat Chorus |
|
| See you later alligator, after
awhile crocodile, |
| See you later alligator, |
| So long, that's all, |
| Goodbye. |
