The Shirelles I Met Him on a Sunday Lyrics:
[Rhythmic clapping & finger snapping throughout.]

(Doo-run-de, run-de, run-de,)
(Pa-pa, doo-run-de, run-de, run-de,)
(Pa-pa, doo-run-de, run-de, run-de,)
(Pa-pa, doo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)

[Each girl takes a turn, alternating singing the solo lines in the verse.]

Well, I met him on a Sunday,
(Ooo, ooo ooo ooo-ooo),
And I missed him on Monday.
(Ooo, ooo ooo ooo-ooo),
Well, I found him on a Tuesday,
(Ooo, ooo ooo ooo-ooo),
Well, I dated him on a Wednesday.
(Ooo, ooo ooo ooo-ooo),
And, I kissed him on a Thursday,
(Ooo, ooo ooo ooo-ooo),
And he didn't come Friday.
(Ooo, ooo ooo ooo-ooo),
When he showed up Saturday,
(Ooo, ooo ooo ooo-ooo),
I said, "Bye-bye, baby."

(Doo-dun-de run-de, run-de, run-de,)
(Pa-pa, doo-dun-de, run-de, run-de, run-de,)
(Pa-pa, doo-dun-de, run-de, run-de, run-de,)
(Pa-pa, doo, ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo.)

Well, I kissed him on a Thursday,

[3] Since the actual score of, Because I Said So, was too long to fit on one
disc, but not ong enough for two discs, many of the songs on this album
were not in the movie. It has been suggested, and I quite agree, that the
title should read, "Music From and That Schematically Makes Sense on This
Soundtrack Because We Didn't Have Enough Room to Fill a CD Since the Score
Was Too Long and Needed Its Own Disc." Ad reps could make this catchy, of
course.]
