Whatshername Lyrics - Album 1700 - Peter, Paul & Mary

Jimmy McGregor, hey, Jimmy, come here 

Jimmy, you son of a gun 

What 'cha been doin'? How long has it been? 

Hell, seven years if it's been one 

How's the preacher? How's Don, did he go back to school? 

No kidding, I thought he was gay 

Who me? Oh, I'm great, I'm a father you know 

Yeah, two of 'em and one on the way 

Oh well, she couldn't make it, she gets pretty tired 

She started her last month today 

I only came up for a couple of minutes 

Believe me, I wish I could stay 

Oh and yeah, while I think of it, do you remember? 

Not for myself, for a friend 

A girl that I brought here before I got married 

A couple of times at the end 

Whatshername? She hardly knew me 

Now her name means something to me 

I wonder if she ever got over me 

Anyway, I should be flattered for yesterday 

At least I mattered, where did it go? 

Hey Jimmy, I tell you, we're two lucky guys 

You've got everything that you've planned 

And all things considered, I've done fairly well 

I mean, God's honest truth, man 

I love Ruth and whatshername? 

I thought I knew her, whatshername? 

What happened to her? I don't know why 

I'll never forget whatshername?
