A single malt cup and go, oh
or
You've seen them walk up and go
You've seen them all come and go
And you'll find McVee
Baby when you finally
Babies wet dry
Maybe that's why
Baby when you find the thief and get to love somebody
Baby when you finally get to love somebody
Baby when you find your feet
Baby when you finally
Every little thing like you
Every little thing I do
Guess what:
I'm gonna be three
Guess what:
It's gonna be me
It's gonna be Mae
It's gonna be me
It's gonna be May
It's gonna be me
It's gonna be nay
or
It's gonna be neigh
It's gonna be me
Maybe, when you fight the fears to get to love somebody
Baby, when you finally get to love somebody
No man on trial
No man, no cry
That it made you believe in no major crime
(later)
But in the end, you know it's gonna be the police
That it made you believe in no man, no cry
(later)
But in the end, you know it's gonna be me
That it made you believe in no man, no crime
That it made you believe in no man, no cry
That it made you bullying, no man, no crime
That it made you believe in no man, no cry
That's why it's gonna be me
Guess what it's gonna be me
The future's to bright to see,
but in the end you know it's gonna be me
Cause you're just to blind to see,
but in the end you know it's gonna be me
When you find the key is to love somebody.
When you finally get to love somebody.
You seem to mark up an go
You've seen them all come and go
You're gonna see me
It's gonna be me
