Wait A Minute Lyrics By The Coasters

    wait a minute let me understand
    while i’m asittin’ here holdin’ your hand
    your tellin’ me about the boy next door
    tellin’ me that he can offer you more

    what a nerve
    what a chase
    better put her in a place

    wait a minute
    you know that won’t get it
    if that’s the way your love will be
    you might as well forget it

    am i correct in hearin’ what you say
    that you would rather be with him instead
    you said that you could travel with him far
    you say he’s got a brand new cadillac car

    well what you mean
    is that so
    better let that woman go

    wait a minute
    you know that won’t get it
    if that’s the way your love will be
    you might as well forget it

    i don’t go for all the crazy noise
    about you datin’ all those other boys
    if i’m gonna be your only one
    i’m not waitin’ till your honey’s done

    you’re a riot
    and you’re tough
    honey cut out all that stuff

    wait ‘a minute
    you know that won’t get it
    if that’s the way your love will be
    you might as well forget it

    i’m gonna tell you for the very last time
    if i’m yours you better be mine
    when i come home about a quarter to four
    don’t wanna hear the slammin’ of the back door

    you’re bad
    and so wild
    stop a messin’ with me child

    wait a minute
    you know that won’t get it
    if that’s the way your love will be
    you might as well forget it

    you might as well forget it

    why you can just go on on and forget about
    the whole cotton pickin’ affair
    i get so tired
