Lyrics :

He went away and you hung around
Bothered me every night
And when I wouldn't go out with you
You said some things that weren't very nice

My boyfriend's back and you're gonna be in trouble
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
When you see him coming, better cut out on the double
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
You been spreading lies that I was untrue
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
So look out now 'cause he's coming after you
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)

Hey, he knows what you been trying
And he knows that you been lying

He's been gone such a long, long time
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
But now he's back and things will be fine
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
You're gonna be sorry you were ever born
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
'Cause he's kinda big and he's awful strong
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)

Hey, he knows I wasn't cheating
Now you're gonna get your beating
What made you think he'd believe all your lies?
(Wah-ooh, Wah-ooh)
You're a big man now but he'll cut you down to size
(Wah-ooh)

My boyfriend's back, he's gonna save my reputation
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
If I were you, I'd take a permanent vacation
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)

Hey, he knows I wasn't cheating
And you're gonna get a beating
(Wah-ooh, Wah-ooh)
(Wah-ooh)

My boyfriend's back, he's gonna save my reputation
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
If I were you, I'd take a permanent vacation
(Hey-la, hey-la, my boyfriend's back)
Ho, my boyfriend's back
(Hey-la)
Ho, my boyfriend's back
(Hey-la)
Ho, my boyfriend's black
(Wah-ooh)
