Just been out with diane in the car, we had a cd on, and as per usual i was singing along [in my head], then GUESS WHO LOVE YOU came on.We played it over & over but could only get a few of the lyrics ie ROSES ARE RED, YOU COPIED HOMEWORK, & something about PIGTAILS. Anyone got any more lyrics from this, cos i can`t figure em out [just to settle a domestic dispute]

You heard rumors of a secret admirer

You received letters filled with strong desire

Now the mail you received from an anonymous sender

Begging surrender

Well I know what it said

It said roses are red

Someone pulled your pigtails from far way after

Someone who you couldn't catch from running after

Someone copied homework

But you did it wrong

He went along

Tell me girl can't you see that the poor boy is me

Baby,baby,baby,baby

Rose are red my love and violets are blue

Dunno if he wrote them or if it was Eddie Singleton, but yer man Eddie Daye sure had a way with words. He wasn't quite so flowery with Lean On Me on Dayco:

"Baby baby

I dig you the most

Wanna be your leaning post (!)

Love's given you a dirty deal

I know I know How you feel

You can lean, lean, lean

Lean on me"

WTF's a "Leaning Post"?
