Woo!

Girl, I´ve been crying ever since you left
My mama told me, "Get a hold of yourself"
And be cool, calm and keep yourself together

She said be cool, calm and keep yourself together, ha ha ha, ha

Sugar plum, you´re really gold
And it just don´t help to cry
So I wiped my tears away the other day
And hung my handkerchief up to dry
Then I changed my style, puttin´ on a smile
And went out to face the world
The smile I wear see, ha, I don´t care that I just lost my girl
But I still get that old yearnin´
Can´t be cool when my heart is burnin´
I still get that old feelin´
Can´t be calm when my head is reelin´

I say mother dear, see here, see here
Tell me now what shall I do

Can´t have that girl and I love her true
She said when things get rough, be man enough

To be cool, calm, and keep yourself together
That´s what my mama said
Be cool, calm, and keep yourself together, ha ha

Sugar pie, you said goodbye
And I cried myself to sleep
That´s when my mother said, "Don´t lose your head, son
It just don´t help to weep"
Now I´m the great pretender
I don´t surrender to what I feel inside
I´m the life of the crowd, and ha, I laugh out loud
But it´s all a fake disguise
´Cause I still hear my heart poundin´

Hard to be cool when you come around me
I still feel my heart purrin´
Hard to be calm when my insides stirrin´

I say mother dear, see here, see here
Tell me now which way to go
Can´t have that girl and I love her so
She said, whenever you´re blue, whatever you do

Be cool, calm, and keep yourself together
That´s what my mama said
Be cool, calm, and keep yourself together
