Hey Bobba Needle

(Album: 18 Golden Hits - 1966)

[Spoken:]
This is a sad story about a girl named Mary Mac and her wondering lover Bob Needle

(Oh! Softly)

I can hear her calling
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bob
Hey Bob

Mary Mac Mac Mac
All dressed in black black black
Don't cha know I'm trying trying trying
Just to come on back back back
Cause I took a plane plane plane
But there was some rain rain rain
And there was no flying flying flying
So I took a train train train

Oh Mary Mac Mac Mac
It went off the track track track
Can't you see I'm dying dying dying
Just to come on back back back

(Oh! Softly)

I can hear you calling
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bob
Hey Bob

Well I took a boat boat boat
But it wouldn't float float float
So I kept on a puffing puffing puffing
That was all she wrote wrote wrote
So I must wear my cross cross cross
And I bought a horse horse horse
But it just keeps running running running
All around the track track track
Baby I ain't lying lying lying
Can't you see I'm trying trying trying
Don't cha know I'm trying trying trying
Just to come on back
To Mary Mac

(Oh! Softly)

I can hear her holler
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bobba Needle Bobba Needle Bobba Needle
Hey Bob
Hey Bob
Oh Yeah
Hey Bob
