I've been trying, trying, trying, trying, trying (Yeah)
Lord knows I've been trying (Yeah)
But no matter, no matter how hard I try
I just can't (Can't, can't give him up)
And I won't (Won't, won't give him up)
Oh, and I can't, no (Can't, can't give him up)
These mellow fellows
Every time I walk down the street
Nothing but cool cats do I meet
Continental suits fitting to a T
They got Slim Jim ties sharp as can be
That's why I can't (Can't, can't give him up)
No, no, no, no, and I won't (Won't, won't give him up)
Oh, and I can't, no (Can't, can't give him up)
These mellow fellows
Sports cars, Cadillacs, Mustangs of a plenty
Telephones, record players, and a who knows how many
Diamond rings, watches, alpaca sweaters
They got alligator shoes and coats made out of leather
That's why I can't (Can't, can't give him up)
No, no, no, no, and I won't (Won't, won't give him up)
Oh, and I can't (Can't, can't give him up)
These mellow fellows
Come to take you out, then they meet your mom and dad
Say a few nice words, then you split from the pad
Make a few stops in all the swinging places
They can introduce you to all the popular faces
That's why I can't (Can't, can't give him up)
No, no, no, no, and I won't (Won't, won't give him up)
Oh, and I can't, no, no (Can't, can't give him up)
These mellow fellows
On the way home, he might stop and wanna park
Hug and squeeze and try to kiss you in the dark
They got a strong conversation, and we girls go for it
It's something these cats got in the world, I don't know it
That's why I can't (Can't, can't give him up)
No, no, no, no, and I won't (Won't, won't give him up)
Oh, and I can't, no, no (Can't, can't give him up)
These mellow fellows
No, no, and I can't (Can't, can't give him up)
No, no, no, no, and I won't, no, no (Won't, won't give him up)
I try hard and I can't (Can't, can't give him up)
No matter what I do and I won't (Won't, won't give him up)
