Your Song |
| It’s a little bit funny Lord, this feeling inside |
| I’m not one of those who can easily hide |
| I don’t have much money but, boy, if I did |
| I’d buy a big mansion where we both could live |
| If, if, if I was a sculpture Lord, honey, but then again, no |
| (Then again no, no) |
| Or a man who makes potions in a travelin' show |
| I know it’s not much, I know it’s not much, but it’s the best I can do |
| You gave me a gift Lord, and I’m gon' sing it for you |
| And you can tell everybody that this is your song |
| (This is your song) |
| It may be a quite, quite simple, but that’s how it’s done |
| I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind |
| What I wrote down in words, words |
| How wonderful life is |
| When you’re in the world, world, world |
| If, if |
| (if) |
| If I was on a rooftop, I’d kick off my shoes |
| (Kick off my shoes, kick my shoes off) |
| I’ll write a few verses and then I get the blues |
| But the sun’s been quite, quite kind while I wrote this song |
| It’s for people like you and people like me |
| I wanna, I wanna keep turnin' on |
| So excuse me for forgetting, but these things I do Lord |
| (These things I do Lord) |
| You see, you see I’ve forgotten if they’re green or blue |
| Anyway the thing is, anyway the thing is, what I really mean |
| You’ve are the sweetest eyes, you’ve got the sweetest eyes |
| The clearest eyes I’ve ever seen, I hope you go back |
| I hope you, I hope you got back and tell everybody |
| That this is your song |
| (This is your song) |
| It may be quite, quite simple, but now that’s how it’s done |
| I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind |
| But I wrote down in words, Lord, words |
| I’m doin' it for how wonderful it is |
| When you’re in the world, world, world |
| If, if |
| (If) |
| If I sat upon a rooftop I’d kick off my shoes, oh yeah |
| (Kick off my shoes, kick my shoes off) |
| I’ll write a few verses and then I get the blues |
| But the sun’s been quite, quite kind while I wrote this song |
| It’s for people like you, people like me |
| I wanna, wanna keep turnin' on, so excuse me, so excuse me |
| So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do |
| (These things I do Lord) |
| You see, you see I’ve forgotten if they’re green or blue, baby |
| And anyway the thing is, anyway the thing is, what I really mean |
| You are the sweetest eyes, the sweetest eyes |
| The sweetest eyes I’ve ever seen |
| I want you to go back, go back and and tell everybody |
| That Billy Paul’s got a song |
| (Billy Paul’s got a song) |
| I’m, I’m gonna sit upon a, a rooftop and kick my shoes off |
| I’m gonna write it (write it), write it (write it), write it (write it) |
| I might come out with the Gospel |
| (Gospel) |
| The blues |
| (Blues) |
| The jazz |
| (Jazz) |
| The rock and roll |
| I’m gonna, got to, got to write me a simple song for everybody |
| Because this is my song |
| (This is my song) |
| It may be quite, quite simple but that’s the way it’s done |
| I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind |
| What I wrote down in words, words |
| You come back, you try to try again, try again |
| Tell everybody that Billy Paul’s got a song |
| (Billy Paul’s got a song) |
| It may be quite, quite simple but that’s how it’s done, baby |
| I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind |
| What I wrote down in words |
| Hold it, hold it, hold it, hold it ooooh |
