Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
There ain't nothin' to ya, but I love you still

Lucille, please come back where you belong
Lucille, please come back where you belong
I'm beggin' to you baby, please don't leave me alone

I woke up this mornin', Lucille was not in sight
Asked her friends about her, all their lips were tight

Lucille, please come back where you belong
I'm beggin' to you baby, please don't leave me alone, oh

Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
There ain't nothin' to ya, but I love you still, oh

Love, love is strange (yeah, yeah)
Lots of people take it for game
Once you've got it, you never wanna quit (no, no)
After you've had it, you're in an awful fix
Love is strange, love is strange

[spoken:]
[Phil:] Hey Don?
[Don:] What Phil?
[Phil:] How would you call your baby home?
[Don:] Well, if I needed her real bad, I guess I would call her like this

[sung:] Baby, oh sweet baby, my sweet baby, please come home

[spoken: Phil] Yeah, that ought to bring her home, Don!

People don't understand (no, no)
They think love is money in the hand
Your sweet lovin' is better than a kiss (yeah, yeah)
When you love (leave?!) me, sweet kisses I miss
Love is strange, love is strange

Johnny is a joker (he's a bird)
A very funny joker (he's a bird)
But when he jokes my honey (he's a dog)
His jokin' ain't so funny (what a dog)
Johnny is a joker that's a-tryin' to steal my baby (he's a bird dog)

Johnny sings a love song (like a bird)
He sings the sweetest love song (ya ever heard)
But when he sings to my gal (what a howl)
To me he's just a wolf dog (on the prowl)
Johnny wants to fly away and puppy-love my baby (he's a bird dog)

Hey, bird dog get away from my quail
Hey, bird dog you're on the wrong trail
Bird dog you better leave my lovey-dove alone
Hey, bird dog, get away from my chick
Hey, bird dog, you better get away quick
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own

Johnny kissed the teacher (he's a bird)
He tiptoed up to reach her (he's a bird)
Well he's the teachers pet now (he's a dog)
What he wants he can get now (what a dog)
He even made the teacher let him sit next to my baby (he's a bird dog)

Hey, bird dog get away from my quail
Hey, bird dog you're on the wrong trail
Bird dog you better leave my lovey-dove alone
Hey, bird dog get away from my chick
Hey, bird dog you better get away quick
Bird dog you better find a chicken little of your own

He's bird……
