Ringo Starr – Oo-wee lyrics

By Richard Starkey and Vini Poncia
Version: Album version (3:42)

EVER SINCE I MET YOU, BABY,
I'VE BEEN ACTING KINDA STRANGE.
I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING,
THEN WITHOUT A WARNING,
ALL I DO IS SCREAM YOUR NAME, YEH.

EV'RYTIME I LOOK INSIDE ME,
I SEE THE MAN THAT I'VE BECOME.
YOU MAKE ME WANNA HOLLER
AND JUMP RIGHT OUT MY COLLAR,
YOU'VE GOT ME ON THE RUN, YEH.

OO-WEE, BABE, OO-WEE, YEH,
FRIENDS DON'T RECOGNISE ME,
THEY SAY YOU HYPNOTISE ME,
OO, WHAT YOU DONE TO ME, BABE?
YOU DRIVE ME OUT OF MY SUNSETS, OO-WEE.

SHE LOOK JUST LIKE THE NEW JEAN HARLOW, (ooohh!)
WITH SULTRY LIPS AND LONG BLONDE HAIR.
THEY SAY SHE CAME FROM HAITES,
OR WAS IT THE EUPHRATES
THAT BROUGHT MY LADY HERE, YEH?

OO-WEE, BABE, OO-WEE, YEH,
FRIENDS DON'T UNDERSTAND ME,
THEY SAY YOU UNDERHAND ME,
OO, WHAT YOU DONE TO ME, BABE?
YOU DRIVE ME OUT OF MY SENSES, OO-WEE, YEH.

-"TAKE IT, JOHN!"
(Oo-oo-oo)
-"IT'S MY DOCTOR PLAYING!"
(Oo-oo-oo)

WHEN I WALK INTO HER PARLOUR,
IT'S LIKE THE SPIDER AND THE FLY.
IN THE DARKNESS SHE SURROUNDS ME,
AND WEAVES HER WEB AROUND ME,
AND LOCKS ME UP INSIDE, YEH.

SHE LOOK JUST LIKE THE NEW JEAN HARLOW, (Harlow)
WITH SULTRY LIPS AND LONG BLONDE HAIR. (ooohh!)
THEY SAY SHE CAME FROM HAITES,
OR WAS IT THE EUPHRATES
THAT BROUGHT MY LADY HERE, UH, UH?

OO-WEE, BABE, OO-WEE, YEH,
FRIENDS DON'T UNDERSTAND ME,
THEY SAY YOU UNDERHAND ME,
OO, WHAT YOU DONE TO ME, BABE?
YOU DRIVE ME OUT OF MY SENSES, OO-WEE, YEH. (oo-wee)
OO-WEE, BABE, (oo-wee)
OO-WEE, BABE, (oo-wee)
OO-WEE, BABE, (oo-wee)
OO-WEE, BABE. (oo-wee)

(Oo-wee)
