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 your collar told a tale on you Lipstick on your collar said you were untrue Bet your bottom dollar you and I are through
'Cause lipstick on your 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, guess the answer's yes
Lipstick on your collar told a tale on you Lipstick on your collar said you were untrue Bet your bottom dollar you and I are through 'Cause lipstick on your collar told a tale on you, boy
Told a tale on you, man, told a tale on you, yeah Told a tale on you
