Why, why, why? (Baby, why do you mistreat me?)
I'll tell you why

Dream girl, dream girl
I love you so
Dream girl, dream girl
I love you so
I do, you did, I do

I love you so

No one else in this whole wide world will ever, ever do
Please, please, say you'll be true
My little dream girl

When I first met you darlin' dear
You were my everything
You were the queen and I felt like a king
Oh, and other girls didn't mean a doggone thing

Baby, you were my everything
But you played me for a fool
I tried so hard to stay real cool
I might as well go back to school
And learn the golden rule
