We meet every day at the same cafe
Six-thirty, I know, I know she'll be there
Holding hands, making all kinds of plans
While the juke box plays our favorite songs

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin'on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

We gotta be extra careful
That we don't build our hopes up too high
Because she's got her own obligations
And so, and so, do I

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin'on
We both know that it's wrong
But it's much too strong
To let it go now

Well, it's time for us to be leaving
It hurts so much, it hurts so much inside
Now she'll go her way and I'll go mine
Tomorrow we'll meet
The same place, the same time

Me and Mrs., Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Jones
We got a thing goin'on
We gotta be extra careful
We can't afford to build our hopes up too high
I wanna meet and talk with you at the same place
The same cafe, the same time, and we're gonna
Hold hands like we used to, we're gonna talk it over, talk it over
We know, they know, and you know and I know that it was wrong,
But I think it's strong, we gotta let 'em know now that we got
A thing going on, but they know it all
