Lyrics:

She was working at a shoe store
I was just a chump unemployed
I never knew it was gonna turn out like this
Computer dating number 954
So I waited at the phone booth
The service said that she would call
I didn't know while I was waiting
I didn't know that I was starting to fall
It's a sad, sad story (Sad, sad story)
It's a sad, sad song (Sad, sad song)
I never meant to fall in love (Sad, sad song)
I never meant to fall in love
She said she'd wear a red carnation
I hung around 'til it was dawn
Funny thing, it's a rough way to meet
But it seemed right from the start
It's a sad, sad story (Sad, sad story)
It's a sad, sad song (Sad, sad song)
I never meant to fall in love (Sad, sad song)
I never meant to fall in love
It might have been the movies
It might have been the flowers
Could have been the park
Where we whiled away the hours
But somehow I'm in love (Somehow I'm in love)
Somehow I'm in love
I thought we'd spend some time together
But I guess it had to end
She ran away with my best friend
I'll never see her again
It's a sad, sad story (Sad, sad story)
It's a sad, sad song (Sad, sad song)
I never meant to fall in love (Sad, sad song)
I never meant to fall in love (Sad, sad song)
I never meant to fall in love
