Gonna Sing You a Song

© 2004 Help Systems Publications

I'm gonna sing you a song if I can figure out how it goes.
It's one of those songs that I think everybody knows.
It's got a lotta words and a catchy little tune,
And if I can remember it, I'll sing it real soon,
'Cause it's also kinda funny—you'll have soda comin' out your nose.

New York, Philly, Baltimore, and D.C.;
Detroit, Chicago, and Memphis, Tennessee;
East Coast, West Coast, North, and South—
Any old words that come outa my mouth,
Just to kill time till the right ones come back to me.

Refrain:

It's on the tip of my tongue,
It's a song I've often sung,
And I'd love to sing it right now.
I know it by heart,
Right from the very start,
So I'll sing it soon as I remember how.

When I woke up this morning, I knew just how it went.
When I wake up tomorrow, I'll prob'ly remember again,
And even though I haven't thought of it yet,
It's a catchy little number that you'll never forget,
So I want you all to sing along, as soon as I say when.

I think it's kinda fast, but it might be a little slow.
The pitch is pretty high, then again it could be low.
It's a funky little ditty with a lotta rhymes.
If I heard it once, I heard it hundreds of times.
And it's called something like, well—oh, I don't know.

Refrain
