Your Song
Billy Paul

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 gonna 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 I was on a rooftop, I'd kick off my shoes

(If, 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 it 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 got the sweetest eyes, you've got the sweetest eyes

The clearest eyes I've ever seen, I hope you got back


I hope you, I hope you got back and tell everybody that this is your song

(This is your song)

It may be a 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, world



If, if, if I sat upon a rooftop, I'd kick off my shoes

(If, 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 a quite, quite kind while I wrote this song

It's for people like you, people like me

I wanna, wanna keep it turnin' on, so excuse me, so excuse me


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, baby

Anyway the thing is, anyway the thing is what I really mean

You've got 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 off my shoes

I'm gonna write it, write it, write it

(Write it, write it, write it)

I might come out with the gospel, the blues, the jazz, the rock and roll

(Gospel, blues, jazz)


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 a 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 a 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, get back, get, got, oh no
