Lyrics

Like howdy do Your ten soldiers your clowns too They're all laughing at you I'm laughing at you too Like basket ball, 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 get away? When I knew I'd need somebody soon, ooh-ooh How could I let you get away? When I knew I'd need somebody soon Like mother goose Winds you up then turns you lose 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'd get so mad at you Like parents often do In the middle of the room Got not time to Count my sheep today, baby How could let you get away? When I knew I'd need somebody soon Ooh-ooh-ooh (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?) how could let you get away, baby? (When I knew I'd) when I knew I'd need somebody soon, yeah Hey baby, I didn't count my sheep (how could I let you get away?) I let my woman weep, baby (When I knew I'd) I knew down inside I needed someone soon Like mother Goose (how could I let you get away?) I done let you lose And I need you baby, yeah (When I knew I'd) ooh-wee, I'd need somebody soon Help me now to keep my feet on the ground (How could I let you get away?) goodbye yeah, yeah, baby
