Findin' a job tomorrow mornin'
Gotta little somethin' I wanna do
Gonna buy (gonna buy) somethin' I could ride in
A-take my girl (take my girl) datin' at the drive-in
Our love's gonna be written down in history,
A-Just like Romeo and Juliet

I'm gonna buy her pretty presents
Just like the ones in a catalog
Gonna show (gonna show) how much I love her
A-Let 'er know (let 'er know) one way or the other
Our love's gonna be written down in history,
A-Just like Romeo and Juliet

(Doop-doop-doop, doo-doot-doot-doot-doot-doot-doot, doo-doop)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)

Talk about love and romance,
Just wait till I get myself straight
I'm a-gonna put Romeo's fame,
Right, smack, dab on the deed

Alright, now, I'm speculatin',
Wonder what tomorrow's gonna really bring
If I don't (if I don't) find work tomorrow,
It's gonna be (gonna be) heartaches and sorrow
Our love's gonna be destroyed by a tragedy,
A-Just like Romeo and Juliet

(Doop-doop-doop, doo-doot-doot-doot-doot-doot-doot, doo-doop)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
[Fade]
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
(Just like Romeo and Juliet)
