Lyrics

  1. Joe built a radio up on the roof
    He sends love messages strong
    He knows who’s listening and this is the proof
    You’ll hear him singing this song

Chorus
Bobbsy! you’re just as sweet as can be
Bobbsy! save all your kisses for me
Bobbsy! my love is burning, Oh, Gee!
I want you, I need you
I’m saving my love for you my turtle dove
Though you have bobbed each bright, golden curl
Don’t bob your love for me little girl
Sweetheart, I hope you’ll answer my call
I want my Bobbsy, Bobbsy that’s all

  1. He sang his way right into Bobbsy’s heart
    Soon the old wedding bells rang
    Neighbors all gathered and right from the start
    They all joined in when he sang
