(Jimmy Newman)

What'cha gonna do when I said bye bye
What'cha gonna do when you start to cry
What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do, hoo, hoo
Bet you never thought I'd walk away
Bet you never thought you would hear me say
What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do? hoo. hoo.

What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do
Everybody else in this doggone town
Know you been a cheatin' and a runnin' around
What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do
Gonna miss me baby and I don't mean maybe baby
Whatcha gonna do?

--- Instrumental ---

What'cha gonna do when you roll along
No one to call you on the telephone
What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do, hoo, hoo
I bet you never thought that little old steam
Turn out to be just bad, bad dream
What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do? hoo. hoo.

Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do
Everybody else in this doggone town
Know you been a cheatin' and a runnin' around
What'cha gonna do, what'cha gonna do
Gonna miss me baby and I don't mean maybe baby
Whatcha gonna do?

Gonna miss me baby and I don't mean maybe baby
Whatcha gonna do?...
