(Ode to) Barbara Jo

I know a gal, Donna called her Barbara Jo

I don’t know why, but she truly loves me so

(chorus)

She picked glass from my eye as I writhed in pain

Now I just want to be with Barb again

Oh Barbara Jo 4x

(spoken) Barb, if you can hear this song I hope you appreciate me.

Because the first time I sang it for you, what you said was Finally!

Well, that just shook me right on down to the bottom of my boogettyboogetty boogetty shoes 

So Barb - here’s my eventual love song for youse

Who put the bom in the bomba bomba bom

Who put the ram in the ramma lamma ding dong

Who put the dip in the dip de dip de dip

Who put the bop in the be bop a loola?

Barb is her name, she must be insane!

Because she fell in love with me

I know a gal, Donna called her Barbara Jo

I don’t know why she truly loves me so

She brooks no nonsense, she takes no shit

She lets me know I’m a hypocrite

(coda) 

Whoa Barbara Jo 6x

I love my Barbara Jo
