Singing ooo-wee
ooo-wee
Same old story, let me tell you folks
about a girl that I once knew
Well in fact, I still know her
and how she's been to school
Everybody sing ooo-wee
ooo-wee
Don't tell me I'm in the picture
You wanna tell me about my fella from the real old skid row
His heart is bigger than his car and
his eyes are brighter than the sun
But for her singin' ooo-wee
ooo-wee
He asked her for a date and it sure got late
Now they're livin' in harmony
Oh,
she's queen,
he's king,
and they're winning cheap
Jose and Sweet Marlene
Jose and Sweet Little Marlene
Singin' and a dancin' and a shakin' everything
Little Marlene,
she's a god alike Little Marlene,

Jose and Sweet Little Marlene Happy together,
don't care about a thing
Jose,
the handsome big man of town Promise
Marlene you'll never let her down
Singin' ooo
-wee ooo-wee
ooo-wee Everybody sing ooo-wee
One fine day,
big track head town and a girl got out of the car
She was a cousin of a friend of Marlene's oldest brother
And walked into what seems to be a favorite bar singin' ooo-wee
ooo-wee
Well, he looked at her and he couldn't resist
And walked up to her for a little tongue twist
Her heart was beatin' like a drum
And her eyes were brighter than the sun by far singin' ooo-wee
ooo-wee
Well,
he asked her for a date and it sure got
late But he couldn't convince her to stay
He went back to his queen to the winning team Jose and Sweet Marlene
