(Bom bom, doo wop, bom-bom, doo wop, bom-bom, doo wop, do-it, do-it.)
[Mary:]
[The doo-wop line from the intro is overdubbed

You cheated, you lied,
You said that you love me.
You cheated, you lied,
You said that you want me.
Oh, what can I do,
But just keep on loving you?
Love is something,
You know nothing about.
Love is somethng,
You can't go without.
So, please try to love me.
Love me like I love you.
Oh-oh-oh oh, please try to love me.
Love me like I love you.

You cheated, you lied,
You said that you love me.

[1] Personnel: Identical twins, Mary Anne & Marguerite "Marge" Ganser and
siblings, Mary & Elizabeth "Betty" Weiss
[1a] , formed the original act. Mary
Weiss was the main, lead singer, Betty, however, took lead on "Maybe," and
a number of B-sides and album tracks, Marge Ganser took lead on "I'm Blue"
and Mary Ann Ganser took the lead on "Sophisticated Boom Boom."]
[1a] Because Betty was underage, her mother did not allow her to tour until
1966, when she became 18. As a result she often did not appear in photos,
and many fans believed the Shangri-Las were a trio. Few pictures show all 4
of the girls.]

The Del Vikings, The Murmaids, P.B.C., Roland Stone, Kenny Vance & the
