Swing Dancing to Bill Haley and the Comets (1956)

Specially to Wil and to some students that heard me saying:

"See you later Alligator!"

After this song, this became "famous" among friends. It says here it was a cartoon that used the expression, but I think it was the song. What do you think?

Have fun with the video and also take a look at the lyric and sing together:

Well, I saw my baby walkin'
With another man today
Well, I saw my baby walkin'
With another man today
When I asked her what's the matter
This is what I heard her say


See you later alligator
After 'while crocodile
See you later alligator
After 'while crocodile
Can't you see you're in my way now
Don't you know you cramp my style


When I thought of what she told me
Nearly made me lose my head
When I thought of what she told me
Nearly made me lose my head
But the next time that I saw her
Reminded her of what she said


See you later alligator
After 'while crocodile
See you later alligator
After 'while crocodile
Can't you see you're in my way now
Don't you know you cramp my style


[Instrumental Interlude]


She said, I'm sorry pretty baby
You know my love is just for you
She said, I'm sorry pretty baby
You know my love is just for you
Won't you say that you'll forgive me
And say your love for me is true


I said wait a minute 'gator
I know you meant it just for play
I said wait a minute 'gator
I know you meant it just for play
Don't you know you really hurt me
And this is what I have to say


See you later alligator
After 'while crocodile
See you later alligator
So long, that's all, goodbye
