Wipe that smile off your face
That won't save you today
No use shouting for help
'Cause my boys are blocking your way
Because we're IOU
IOU play must you
I said I-O-U
You knew footsie was old
You knew she's be alone
But now her father is old
'Cause he would smile if he saw you pose
Because we're IOU
IOU play must you
I said I-O-U
Now don't give me that jive
You sure knew she was mine
But we'll soon put this thing straight
With a good old bunch of fives
Because we're IOU
IOU play must you
I said I-O-U
IOU, just for you
I said IOU, just for you
