Lyrics Ninety Nine - The Nighthawks

Darling you know what happened
Last year just about this time
Darling you know what happened
Last year just about this time
My baby me for one hundred dollars
And I didn't have but ninety nine

I'm in love with the little girl
'Cause you know she's so nice and kind
Well, I'm in love with the little girl
'Cause you know she's so nice and kind
Ah, she asked me for one hundred dollars
But I couldn't give her but ninety nine

Well, my baby taken sick on July twenty-nine
Well, my baby taken sick, man, on July the twenty-ninth
Her doctor bill was four hundred dollars
I couldn't give her but three hundred and ninety nine
