Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You've heard about Margie
Heard about Dinah
Heard about Susie
But, ooh, Lulu
[Verse 2]
Gotta get my old tuxedo pressed
Gotta sew a button on my vest
'Cause tonight, I gotta look my best
Lulu's back in town
Gotta get a half a buck somewhere
Gotta shine my shoes and slick my hair
Gotta get myself a boutonnière
Lulu's back in town
[Verse 3]
You can tell all my pets
All my blondes and brunettes
Mister Otis regrets
That he won't be around
[Verse 4]
You can tell the mailman not to call
I ain't comin' home until the fall
And I might not get back home at all
Lulu's back in town
[Verse 5]
You've heard about Margie
Heard about Dinah
Heard about Susie
But, ooh, Lulu
[Verse 6]
I gotta get my tuxedo pressed
Gotta sew a button on my vest
'Cause tonight, I gotta look my best
For Lulu
I gotta find a few bucks somewhere
Polish up my shoes and slick my hair
Gotta get myself a boutonnière
Lulu
[Verse 7]
You can tell all my pets
All my blondes and brunettes
Mister Otis regrets
That he won't be around
[Verse 8]
You can tell my friends not to call
I won't comin' back till the fall
And I might not get back home at all
Lulu's back in town
Lulu's back in town
Lulu-Lulu-Lulu-Lulu-Lu
Lulu's back, back in town
