Lyrics :

About wore out of fun
Since you said that you'd be gone
Looks like I have to sit here all alone
I'm blue, blue as I can be
Well, tonight is the prom
And everybody's got a date but me
Well she said she'd be my baby
We had a date, but it's too late
An' now I'm left here behind
I'm blue, blue as I can be, yeah
Well tonight is the prom
And everybody's got a date but me
Oh Jerry

Guitar break

Well, I'll find a brand new baby
I don't know how right now
They're all booked up, I'm out of luke
I don't care anyhow
I'm blue, blue as I can be
Well tonight is the prom
And everybody's got a date but me
Oh blow Jackie

Sax break

...Repeat de last...
