Doo Ron Ron and the Duke of Earl
They were friend's of mine
And I was on my moonlight drive
Snuggled in said, "Baby, just one kiss"
She said, "No, no, no"
Romance ain't keepin' me alive
I said, "Hey babe, do you wanna coo, coo, coo?"
She said, "Ah, ah, ah"
So I was left out in the cold
I said, "You're what I've been dreaming of"
She said, "I don't want to know"
(Oh you know, she was diggin' the cat on the radio)

Clap for the Wolfman
He gon' rate your record high 
(Yes baby, I your doctor love)

(Heh heh, everybody's talking about the Wolfman's "pompatous of love")

Seventy-five or eighty miles an hour
She hollered, "Slow, slow, slow"
Baby, I can stop right on a dime
I said, "Hey baby, give me just one kiss"
She said, "No, no, no"
But how was I to bide my time?
I said, "Hey babe, do you wanna coo, coo, coo?"
He said "Ah, ah, ah"
Said, "I'm about to overload"
I said "You're what I been living for"
She said "I don't know want to know"
(Oh, you thought she was diggin' you but she was diggin' me)

Clap for the Wolfman
He gon' rate your record high
