She's my best friend
Certainly not the average girl
She's my best friend
Understands me when I'm falling
Down, down, down
Oh, it hurts to be that way
Down, down, down
Oh, it hurts to know that that kind of fellow
Is a Newspaper Joe
Dropped his teeth on the floor
Caught his hand in the door
Guess that's the way the news goes
If you want to see me
Sorry, but I'm not around
If you want to be me
Turn around, I'm by the window where the light is
She's my best friend
Better than a doll by far
She's my best friend
Understands me when I'm falling
Down, down, down
Oh, it hurts to be that way
Down, down, down
Oh, it hurts to know that that kind of fellow
Is a Mulberry Jane
She made jam when she came
Somebody cut off her feet
Now, jelly rolls in the street
If you want to see me
Sorry, but I'm not around
If you want to be me
Turn around, I'm by the window where the light is
She's my best friend
Certainly not the average girl
She's my best friend
Understands me when I'm falling
(Falling)
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
