Send a telegram to my baby 
 Send a telegram, send a telegram 
 Who, send a telegram to my baby 
 This is what I want you to do 
 I want you to tell her that I'm all alone 
 I tried to call her on the phone 
 Tell her I'm in misery 
 And think she's avoiding me 
 And if the telegram don't do 
 Send a box of candy too 
 And maybe some flowers 
 Tell her that I missed her for hours and hours 
 Send a telegram, send a telegram 
 Send a telegram man 
 To my baby you hear what I say 
 Oh western union man send a telegram 
 Send a telegram to my baby 
 Oh western union man 
 Hey send a telegram 
 Send a telegram, send a telegram 
 Oh send a telegram to my baby 
 This is what I want you to do 
 Listen, tell me have you got a boy you can send 
 This is what I want him to do 
 Put him on his bike right away 
 See if he can get my message through 
 Maybe tomorrow 
 But mail it right away 
 I want the girl to know that I miss her 
 Something like yesterday 
 Send a telegram, send a telegram man 
 To my baby 
 Do you hear what I say? 
 Oh western union man why don't you send a telegram 
 Oh send a telegram to my baby 
 Western union man send a telegram 
 Oh send it right on to my baby 
 Hey western union man 
 Send a telegram, send a telegram
