lyrics

(Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do)

Lemme tell ya bout Barbara my friend
She never ends
Lemme tell ya bout Barbara
Oh my friend
Ey they never end

When we met she was singing
Doing her own thing
Couldn’t believe it
My child
Only fifteen
She’s makin a good thing
From a bad
On god she don’t know what she has

Lemme tell ya bout Barbara my friend
She never ends
Lemme tell ya bout Barbara
Oh my friend
Ey they never end

They’re living their best life
Loving their own way
Bowing to no one
I’m glad that I got to know them well
And when it’s all over
Their name will keep ringing
(over and over)
Oh all through the halls
Oh the stories they could tell
They’d say

(Scatting x4)
Do do do do do do do do
Barbara

Lemme tell ya bout Barbara my friend
She never ends
Lemme tell ya bout Barbara
Oh my friend
Ey they never end

Oh oh oh Barbara my friend
Mm she never ends
Lemme tell ya bout Barbara
Oh my friends
They never end

Barbara my friend
She never ends
Barbara oh my friend
They never end

(All)
Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do
Ah ah ah

Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do
Do do do do do
Ah ah ah
(Melisma) Oh Barbara
