J. Geils Band – Musta Got Lost, With Intro lyrics

(Spoken)
Hold on this song has a little introduction to it
It's ain't supposed to be sad though you might feel it that way
It's a song about desperation,
Every now and then we do get desperate

This is a song about L-O-V-E,
And if you abuse it you're gonn' lose it
And if you lose it you're gonn' 'buse and
If you 'buse it you aint gonn' be able to choose it
Cuz you aint gonn' have it further on down the line
Things aint gonn' be so fine
You're gonn' to be sitting there on your little.. Machine
Tryin to look and keep it clean and
You're going to be home playing bingo all night all alone
And that's why your sittin there by the telephone
And you know that she aint goin to call you!

So you put on the tv and you're watchin Johnny Carson
Segwayin right into the Tomorrow show
But that don't got the go so you turn it off ya turn on the radio,
The radio don't' seem to get the click so you say
"Hey Man, I can't lickety split"
You start to open up a little book
And there's somethin there you got to overlook
And you say "baby, you know there's somethin on my mind!
"You say "Baby there's somethin on my mind -
I know that you're home and I know you aint all alone! "

So you start walking over to her house
And you get over to her house
And you walk over to her door and
You start poundin on her door and you say
"Open up the door bitch!"
This is wooba gooba with the green teeth, let me in!! "

Well, she opens up the door
And then you just kinda walk up to her and say
"Baby", (say Baby!) you look up way up at her green mascara
And you say "Oh my darling,
You know her and me was at the party as friends -
Do not believe what they say
That's only gossip that they tellin ya -
A wise crack of lies! "
You say Darling!!!

Take your big curls and squeeze them down Ratumba -
What's the name of the chick with the long hair?
(Rapunzel!) Hey Rapunzel!
Heh heh... Hey Reputa the beautah! Reputa the Beautah!
Hey Reputa the Beautah flip me down your hair
And let me climb up to the ladder of your love!!
Because this is the wooba gooba sayin to ya
"Love comes once and when it comes
You better grab it fast cuz sometimes the love
You grab aint gonn' last and
I believe I musta,
You know I think I musta,
You know baby I think I musta,
You know I think I musta,
I musta got lost!!!!!!!

1...2.... 3...

(Sung)
Never thought about tomorrow
Seemed like a long time to come
How could I be so blind, baby
Not to see you were the one

I let ya slip on from me baby
I let ya walk on by,
Shoulda loved, you told me
I refused to love, I let it die

Musta got lost, musta got lost, musta got lost
Somewhere down the line
Musta got lost, musta got lost
Give away the day you were mine

Don't know why I let you leave me
Honey I don't know
See its hard to see lovin' comin baby
But I have a way to see it go

Musta got lost, musta got lost, musta got lost
Somewhere down the line
Musta got lost, I got lost
Give away the day you were mine

Love can be a sweet thing
Girl I just don't understand
Made a game outta lovin' you
Now I hold a losin' hand

Musta got lost, musta got lost, musta got lost
Somewhere down the line
Musta got lost, I got lost girl
Give away the day you were mine

I just don't understand it
I just don't understand it
I just don't understand it

And I musta got lost, musta got lost, musta got lost
Somewhere down the line, hey
Musta got lost, baby, I got lost girl
Give away the day you were mine

Musta got lost, I got lost, musta got lost
Somewhere down the line
Musta got lost, I got lost girl
Give away the day you were mine

C'mon
Oh, I got lost, double-crossed
Your lovin, give it to me all night long

[Instrumental]

I said your love got me higher,
Than I ever been lifted before

I said your love got me higher,
Than I ever been lifted before......

Somewhere.....................
