When you left me all alone at the record hop Told me you were goin’ out for a soda pop You were gone for quite a while, half an hour or more You came back and man oh man this is what I saw
Lipstick on you collar, told a tale on you Lipstick on you collar, said you were untrue Bet your bottom dollar, you and I are through Cause, lipstick on you collar told a tale on you, yeah
You said it belonged to me, made me stop and think Then I noticed yours was red, mine was baby pink Who walked in but Mary Jane, lipstick all a mess Were you smoochin’ my best friend, yes, he answered, yes
Lipstick on you collar, told a tale on you Lipstick on you collar, said you were untrue Bet your bottom dollar, you and I are through Cause, lipstick on you collar told a tale on you, boy
