What Am I Doing Hangin' 'round?

The Monkees

    Continues after the ad

    Just a loudmouth yankee, I went down to Mexico
    I didn't have much time to spend, about a week or so
    There, I lightly took advantage of a girl who loved me so
    But I found myself a'thinking, when the time had come to go

    What am I doing hangin' 'round?
    I should be on that train and gone
    I should be riding on that train to San Antone
    What am I doing hangin' 'round?

    She took me to the garden just for a little walk
    I didn't know much Spanish, and there was no time for talk
    Then she told me that she loved me
    Not with words, but with a kiss
    And like a fool, I kept on thinking of a train I could not miss

    Well, it's been a year or so
    And I wanna go back again
    And if I get the money, well I'll ride the same ol' train
    But I guess your chances come but once
    And boy, I sure missed mine
    And still, I can't stop thinking when I hear some whistlecryin'

    What am I doing hangin' 'round?
    I should be on that train and gone
    I should be riding on that train to San Antone
    What am I doing hangin' 'round?

    What am I doing hangin' 'round...
