| If I was a Beatle I’d sing about yesterday
|
| If I was James Taylor I’d sing about fire and rain
|
| If I was Elvis I’d sing about my shoes
|
| But since I’m just me, I’d sing about you
|
| If I was Hank Williams it’d be about heartache and pain
|
| If I was Tom Petty I’d sing about Mary Jane
|
| If I was Ole Willie I’d sing about eyes that are blue
|
| But since I’m just me, I’d sing about you
|
| 'Cause you are the perfect melody
|
| You are every note I’d sing
|
| Every word I’d write
|
| Even when I’m out of tune
|
| All I can be is me
|
| And sing about you
|
| If I was Jimmy Buffett I’d sing about swimmin'
|
| If I was a Stone it’d be about honky tonk women
|
| If I was Ole Blue Eyes I’d sing fly me to the moon
|
| But since I’m just me, I’d sing about you
|
| 'Cause you are the perfect melody
|
| And you are every note I’d sing
|
| Every word I’d write
|
| Even when I’m out of tune
|
| All I can be is me
|
| And sing about you
|
| Layla, Amanda, Maggie May, and June
|
| The only thing missin' is
|
| You are the perfect melody
|
| And you are every note I’d sing
|
| Every word I’d write
|
| Even when I’m out of tune
|
| All I can be is me
|
| And I’d sing about you
|
| All I care to be is me
|
| Singin' 'bout you
|
| You know I’d sing about you |
