Called Me Back

My so-called buddy never called me back
 called me back, called me back
 my so-called buddy never called me back
 I don't know what to think about that
 I coulda been croaking on the floor of my flat
 floor of my flat, floor of my flat
 I coulda been croaking on the floor of my flat
 the bugger never called me back
 Then again he could have troubles himself
 troubles himself, troubles himself
 then again he could have troubles himself
 I better try him once more
 He could be going through a bitter divorce
 bitter divorce, bitter divorce
 he could be going through a bitter divorce
 or a quadruple bypass
 Maybe his mother ran afoul of the law
 afoul of the law, afoul of the law
 maybe his mother ran afoul of the law
 you never know with that gang
 He coulda slid into a society scene
 society scene, society scene
 he coulda slid into a society scene
 and left his old friends behind
 My so-called buddy never called me back
 called me back, called me back
 my so-called buddy never called me back
 I don't know what to think about that
 the bugger never called me back
 I better try him once more
