DO WAH DIDDY DIDDY
Manfred Mann on their 1964 single
(Barry/Greenwich)

There she was just a-walkin' down the street, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
Snappin' her fingers and shufflin' her feet, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
She looked good (looked good), she looked fine (looked fine)
She looked good, she looked fine and I nearly lost my mind

Before I knew it she was walkin' next to me, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
Holdin' my hand just as natural as can be, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
We walked on (walked on) to my door (my door)
We walked on to my door, then we kissed a little more

Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

Now we're together nearly every single day, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
Well I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)
I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime

Whoa-oh, I knew we was falling in love
Yes I did, and so I told her all the things I'd been dreamin' of

Now we're together nearly every single day, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
A-we're so happy and that's how we're gonna stay, singin' "Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do"
Well I'm hers (I'm hers), she's mine (she's mine)
I'm hers, she's mine, wedding bells are gonna chime

Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh yeah
Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do, we'll sing it
Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do, oh yeah, oh, oh yeah
Do wah diddy diddy dumb diddy do
