Like howdy-do
Your tin soldiers, your clowns too
They're all laughing at you
I'm laughing at you too
Like basketball
Five fouls and that was all
The games you really knew, yeah
Why couldn't I beat you
In the middle of the room
Got no time to count my sheep today
How could I let you get away
When I knew I'd need somebody soon hoo hoo
How could I let you get away
When I knew I'd need somebody soon
Like mother goose
Winds you up then turns you loose
Block ten was beatin' two
And I can't tell green from blue, no no
Like cat and mouse
Games of chase instead of house
I get so mad at you
Like parents often do
In the middle of the room
Got no time to count my sheep today, baby
How could I let you get away
When I knew I'd need somebody soon, hoo hoo
(How could I let you get away) baby
When I knew I'd need somebody soon
Ooh baby
(How could I let you get away, baby) how could I let you get away, baby
(When I knew) when I knew I'd need somebody soon, yeah
Hey, baby
I didn't count my sheep, I let them moan and weep, baby
(When I knew I'd) I knew down inside I'd need somebody soon
Like mother goose I done let you loose (how could I let you get away)
And need you, baby, yeah
Ooh-wee, I need somebody soon
Help me now, keep my feet on the ground (how could I let you get away)
My baby
