I recall just walking down the street
Trying to escape the city heat
I saw her from the corner of my eye-eye-eye
Yeah, she looked so good, I thought I'd die

My heart went bang-shang-a-lang, bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang, bang, bang
My heart went bang shang-a-lang, bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang, bang, bang

Something said I shouldn't waste no time
If I'm ever gonna make her mine
I walked right up and said, "How do you do-do-do?"
She said, "I'll bet I'll do as good as you do"

My heart went bang-shang-a-lang, bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang, bang, bang
My heart went bang shang-a-lang, bang-shang-a-lang
Bang-shang-a-lang, bang, bang

I remember when I held her tight
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
Felt like holding dynamite, now
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
What's that ringing in my ear?
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
Tell me, ain't those bells I hear?
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
Bang, bang
(Shang-a-lang)
Bang, bang
(Shang-a-lang)
Bang, bang, bang
(Shang-a-lang-lang)
Bang, bang, bang

Now she's gonna spend her life with me
And we'll be as happy as can be
'Cause I love her more than I can tell-tell-tell
Sunday afternoon, we'll enter Hell

My heart went bang-shang-a-lang
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
Bang-shang-a-lang
(Bang-shang-a-lang)
Bang-shang-a-lang, bang, bang
