Blackjack I Saw Linda Yesterday song lyrics

Looked like I'd found peace of mind,

Looked like I was gonna make it this time --

Just when I thought I was really okay,

I saw Linda yesterday.

Oh, she smiled that same old smile,

My heart was runnin' wild --

My love for her is reelin'

As I go off the ceilin',

(Hey, hey, dumb de dodie-dodie,

Hip, hip, dumb de dodie-dodie,

Hip, hip, dumb de dodie-dodie-do,

dumb-diddly, dumb-diddly, dumb-dumb-dum...)

Go straight to a lonely guy,

Sit around and watch me cry --

People ask what's wrong, I say,

"I saw Linda yesterday."

My heart went up, down,

Like a merry-go-round and 'round,

Like a forest fire, Down, down,

Oh, oh, oh, dumb-didly, dumb-didly, dumb-dumb-dum...

Hey, hey, dumb de dodie-dodie,

Hip, hip, dumb de dodie-dodie,

Hip, hip, dumb de dodie-dodie-do,

dumb-diddly, dumb-diddly, dumb-dum...
